  • No split shifts.
  • Occasional weekend work.
  • Late shifts only during special events.
  • 34 days of annual leave, inclusive of Bank Holidays and University Customary days.
  • Family and Work-life balance policies, including generous maternity, paternity, shared parental leave, and adoption leave.
  • A robust pension scheme with life cover for dependents and incapacity coverage.
  • Health and Wellbeing: discounted access to sports facilities, relaxation areas, extensive parkland, wellbeing initiatives, medical services, and a 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme.
  • Campus Amenities: sports facilities, library, childcare services, grocery store, postal services, bars, and dining options.
  • Exclusive shopping discounts to help reduce household expenses, childcare salary sacrifice scheme, Cycle to Work scheme, and public transport discounts.
  • Professional Development: unlimited access to online learning platforms and specialized training from our Organizational Development team.
An NVQ level 2/3 in a culinary discipline or equivalent qualifications or experience is essential. If you possess the necessary qualifications and a passion for crafting high-quality, innovative dishes, we would be pleased to hear from you.
