Carlisle, United Kingdom Mitie Full time

Join us and help deliver the exceptional, every day.


We are currently seeking a dedicated and detail-oriented Catering Assistant to join our team. 

As a Catering Assistant, your main duties involve the preparation and maintenance of dining and service areas. This includes tasks such as setting up furniture, trolleys, and cleaning equipment, as well as ensuring adherence to health and safety standards. You will be responsible for serving food in correct portions and washing dishes, cutlery, and other catering equipment. Daily cleaning of all catering areas is essential and you may also be required to undergo additional training which we will provide. 

Other responsibilities include cash collection and banking, maintaining records and procedures and undertaking key holding responsibilities. Excellent customer service is crucial, and you will be expected to communicate regularly with customers, managers and your colleagues 

Previous catering experience in a similar environment, basic Food Hygiene, and basic Health and Safety certificates are desirable. However, these certifications are not essential as comprehensive training will be provided. To perform the duties effectively, you should possess adequate numeracy, literacy, and communication skills.

A strong passion for delivering exceptional customer service is important, along with the ability to work well both independently and as part of a team. Adaptability, attention to detail, and the willingness to take on different tasks as needed are valued qualities. You should also demonstrate a hardworking and confident demeanor, along with excellent organizational skills and time management abilities. 

Our market-leading offering provides you with benefits that suit your lifestyle.

We have a virtual GP on hand for you and members of your household. So you can get expert advice by video or phone without having to leave your home. We offer financial wellbeing assistance through our Salary Finance scheme. For example, you could access 50% of your earned pay before payday for a small fee. Salary Finance also offers competitive loans.

When you join us, we’ll give you a link to our flexible lifestyle benefits platform, Choices. You might choose to purchase up to five extra days’ holiday each year. You might buy critical illness insurance, seek dental treatment or buy technology products at an affordable cost. There are many choices

We give you access to high street discounts from thousands of well-known retailers, gyms and more through our MiDeals platform. And we have a cycle-to-work scheme. Life cover of up to four times your salary is available. We also offer enhanced pension contributions, a save-as-you-earn scheme, and a Mitie Matching Share Plan (you could even be awarded free shares in Mitie).

We award our employees with Mitie Stars as recognition for their hard work. There are cash prizes up for grabs each month and at the end of the year there’s a chance to scoop a top prize of £10,

Our success is a direct result of the experience and quality of our people. Progressing your career is therefore a top priority for us. We offer a diverse variety of training and development avenues via a wide selection of learning resources to suit you.
