Join Our Friendly Café Team
The Greenhouse Business Centre in Annfield Plain is home to a thriving community of local businesses, offering modern offices, meeting spaces, and a welcoming business lounge. At the heart of it all is our Greenhouse Café — serving freshly prepared breakfasts, lunches, and refreshments to our tenants and visitors throughout the day, as well as providing catering for meetings and business events.

We're looking for a Catering Assistant to join our small, friendly team and help us deliver great food and warm service every day.

• Prepare and serve sandwiches, soups, lunches, and hot drinks (including barista coffee)
• Welcome and serve customers with a smile
• Help prepare food for meetings and business catering orders
• Handle cash and card payments accurately
• Keep the kitchen and café areas clean, safe, and well-organised
• Support with washing up, deliveries, and other general duties

What We're Looking For
You don't need previous catering experience — just a positive attitude, reliability, and enthusiasm for great food and customer service.

We'll give you all the training you need to succeed.

You'll Fit Right In If You Are

• Friendly, helpful, and enjoy working with people
• A team player who's happy to get stuck in
• Reliable and take pride in doing a good job
• Willing to learn and follow food hygiene and safety standards

Why Join Us?

• Supportive, welcoming team environment
• Full training provided
• Varied role combining kitchen and front-of-house work
• Opportunity to develop new skills in a professional catering setting
• Daytime hours (no late nights)

If you're looking for a friendly workplace where your contribution really matters — and where you can be part of a café that brings people together — we'd love to hear from you.
