Aston End, United Kingdom CV-Library Full time

Woodlands View, Stevenage SG2 9RZ

 

Please note that this is a full-time role working 37.5 hours per week.

 

In your role as an Assistant Chef at HC-One, you’ll value one thing above all. Kindness. It carries across every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist Care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our Residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. By joining HC-One you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.

As an Assistant Chef that will mean cooking and serving nutritious, healthy meals that our Residents will love. You’ll provide outstanding support to our First Chef, taking charge in their absence. And, whether you’re managing the food stock, working out how to make the most of your budget, coaching a colleague or supervising the kitchen clean-up, you’ll always have Resident wellbeing in mind above anything else.

HC-One are looking for an Assistant Chef with at least a Level 2 Food Hygiene Certificate and great understanding of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points. Beyond that, it’s all about your brilliant, positive energy and natural ability to get along with people. You’ll be organised and meet deadlines, present your food attractively and have a knack for following recipes perfectly. And, whenever you communicate with a Resident or co-worker, you’ll be truly considerate and kind.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and therefore it is important that you are able to recognise the signs which may indicate possible abuse, harm or neglect in its different forms and know what to do if there are any concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken. 

We’ll provide full training, so it’s a great opportunity to learn something new. In return, you will enjoy access to a huge variety of benefits and services to support your physical and psychological well-being and throughout your career as an Assistant Chef we will invest in you and you will enjoy additional support and benefits including:

Paid Enhanced DBS/PVG

Free uniform

Hourly rate is subject to experience and qualifications.

During a shift of eight hours or more a nutritious meal will be available

Company pension scheme

28 days annual leave inclusive of bank holidays

Group life assurance cover

Wagestream - financial wellbeing and flexible access to pay as you need it

Award-winning learning and development and support to achieve qualifications.

GP online - a service providing around the clock GP consultation via an interactive app - available to you and your children under 16

An opportunity to learn from experienced colleagues as part of an outstanding and committed team.

Colleague discounts – Access to over 1600 high street discounts including carefully selected discount partners.

Wellbeing - free of charge access to an independent and confidential Employee Assistance Programme. This gives Colleagues and their family access to 24/7 365 support for a whole range of issues including physical, mental and financial issues

Excellent recognition schemes such as ‘Kindness in Care’ and Long Service Awards

An attractive refer a friend scheme of up to £1000 per referral, depending on the role

We are committed to providing the quickest possible turnaround from the point of making you a job offer to you starting with us on day one.
We are passionate about ensuring that our current and future Colleagues can be their true selves, and that our workforce represents the communities we serve. We prioritise inclusive working practices and invite applicants from all backgrounds into our HC-One family.
