- This position is based at HM Prison Kirklevington Grange, TS15 9PAAbout the job

**Summary**:

- Please refer to Job Description**Job description**:
**Band 3 Caterer in Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS)**

This is not your average catering job. It is a great chance to put your catering qualifications (level 2 certificate in food production and level two food hygiene certificate as a minimum) and skills into practice and make an impact far beyond the kitchen.

As part of the prison’s catering team, you’ll be working in a professional industrial kitchen environment, with a good salary, pension and Civil Service benefits including apprenticeship opportunities ‘earn while you learn’. Unlike traditional restaurant jobs, you won’t have to work late into the evening.

You’ll oversee the work of offenders to prepare and cook quality, nutritional meals for the entire prison. Plus, you’ll play your part in helping them turn their lives around - supporting them to learn new skills and work towards gaining qualifications to increase their chances of employment and reduce their likelihood of reoffending when they leave prison.

For the full job description please see the supporting attachment.

Watch our video on the website (details also on the attachment below) to hear from some of our prison caterers about what the role is really like.

**In addition, you must be**:

- familiar with all current health, safety and hygiene related regulations for working in a kitchen
- able to demonstrate competency within an industrial kitchen environment.

An ability to fulfil all spoken aspects of the role with confidence through the medium of English or (where specified in Wales) Welsh is also required
