**You**:
You’re a hard-working individual with experience working in a busy kitchen. Ideally, you’ve already got some experience in a care home setting.

For example, you’ll take pressure off the chefs by cooking breakfast in the mornings. At main mealtimes, you’ll add those much-loved finishing touches like custard or gravy. You’ll be responsible for safe, hygienic food storage and for making sure kitchen equipment and cleaning materials are kept in their correct places.
