**Working at Fennies is about loving what you do and having the passion to be the best at it**:
Fennies has been excelling in the early years since 1992, and we're opening new nurseries every year.

You'll work as part of a team, being led by the Nursery Chef and roles being delegated to you fairly. You'll assist in carrying out important checks to help ensure that you are running an efficient, top performing and reliable kitchen each day.

- 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
- Offering career progression opportunities and space to build upon your skills by catering for a variety of audiences, such as parents and staff at events, the team's lunches and children's meals
- 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
