Paisley, United Kingdom Webrecruit Full time

Royal Alexandra Hospital, Paisley
Part-time / Permanent

Overview

Royal Voluntary Service hospital cafés, shops and trolleys are part of the fabric of the NHS and a real asset in their own right. Staffed by employees and volunteers, we provide an outstanding range of beverages and healthy food choices. Our customers love the fact that the money they spend with us pays for volunteer action in hospitals and the community.

The Role

Working alongside a friendly team, you will participate in the day-to-day running of our busy café, shop and trolley service, in the Royal Alexandra Hospital.

**In this role, you will be responsible for**:

- Providing friendly, helpful and efficient service at all times
- Welcoming customers, informing them about specials or new products, answering questions and accepting orders and payments
- Preparing hot and cold drinks
- Serving freshly made food such as cake, sandwiches and pastries
- Operating the till and cashing up
- Maintaining a high level of cleanliness complying with Health and Safety and food hygiene standards and ensuring all areas of the site remain tidy
- Ensuring that all stock and displays are replenished regularly and ordering supplies if required
- This role may involve pushing loaded trolleys of stock for long distances

Working Hours

This is a permanent, part-time role working 16 hours per week, across four days with the earliest start time being 7am.

Our retail sites can be open on weekends and bank holidays. There may also be opportunities for paid overtime in busy periods or to cover absence.

What you’ll need

Working in a hospital requires a special kind of customer service. Your ability to communicate with a variety of people in a friendly and cheerful way will make a real difference to someone’s day. The key is to adapt your approach to each person to ensure their needs are met.
- Previous experience in a retail or cafe environment would be an advantage but training will be given - just make sure you have a positive attitude and can-do mindset along with a willingness to work and we’ll teach you the rest
- The ability to deliver excellent customer service
- A flexible approach towards working hours
- Enjoying working within a passionate team as well as working on your own on occasions
- Knowledge of EPOS systems would be advantageous
