**Are you looking to cook high-quality, nutritious, and fresh meals without having to work late evenings?**

As a Bank Cook at our hospice, you will play a vital role in supporting our catering service, ensuring that our patients, staff, and visitors receive exceptional meals in a supportive environment.

**Key Responsibilities**:

- ** Cover Shifts**: Provide coverage for kitchen team members during holidays and offer extra support based on the day/shift’s needs.
- ** Meal Preparation**: Cook and prepare fresh, nutritious meals for patients in our in-patient unit, Living Well Centre attendees, and staff. You will also cater for internal events and fundraising functions.

**What We’re Looking For**:

- ** Relevant Experience**: Experience in Healthcare, Nursing, or Hospice/Charity environments is ideal but not necessary. Food hygiene certification is advantageous, but we offer training if needed.
