Fennies has been excelling in the early years since 1992, and we're opening new nurseries every year.

- Preparing well-balanced and nutritious meals (including purees) in accordance with agreed menu plans for all the children that attend our nurseries
- Assisting with the daily cleaning schedule, such as mopping, sweeping, wiping surfaces, and cleaning cookers, kitchen equipment, crockery and cutlery
- Keeping paperwork and records up to date to be used for future reference for the safety of everyone consuming food
- Taking stock of all dry and frozen foods before an order and communicating this with the Head Chef
- Monitoring wastage at all nurseries and suggesting changes to the menu accordingly if a meal is unpopular

- How to cater for children's dietary requirements by following up-to-date legislation regarding nutrition and through your knowledge of catering for children
- The requirements for receiving the highest rating from the local council's Environmental Health Department to maintain the high standards already in the setting
- How to implement all relevant policies and procedures
- You'll have a L2 Food Hygiene certificate
- You'll have completed your Allergen Training

**We're the best at**:

- Onboarding staff correctly in a paid induction to ensure you feel confident and supported from day one of your career at Fennies
- Communicating within our teams in regular meetings to give and receive feedback, mentor and ensure we are succeeding together
- Scheduling regular trainings to help you keep up to date in your knowledge

- providing team building opportunities through the different events you'll assist with and involving the catering team in these events to showcase your talents
- Prioritising your well-being by offering monthly events that help you progress in your life outside of Fennies. You can learn to mix cocktails, get advice on mortgages, try a meditation class and more
