What You’ll Do:

- Kitchen Management: Take charge of day-to-day kitchen operations, managing food production within budget while maintaining high standards of cleanliness and hygiene.
- Record Keeping: Maintain accurate records of food supplies and monitor freezer and fridge temperatures to ensure food safety and quality.
- Stock Management: Ensure proper stock rotation, assist in ordering supplies, check deliveries, and conduct stock valuations as needed.
- Health & Safety: Uphold statutory Health & Safety standards in the kitchen and dining areas, ensuring a safe and hygienic environment.
- Cleaning & Maintenance: Ensure all crockery and equipment are cleaned and stored properly, and oversee the overall cleanliness of the kitchen and dining areas.
Skills, Knowledge & Qualifications:
- Culinary Qualifications: City & Guilds 706 – 1 & 2, or equivalent qualification (achieved or working towards).
- Team Player: Ability to work effectively within a team to achieve common goals.
- Food Hygiene: Basic Food Hygiene Certificate, ensuring you understand and implement best practices in food safety.
- Communication Skills: Good communication skills to liaise with team members and understand residents’ dietary needs.
- Initiative: Ability to work independently and take the lead in the kitchen when the Head Chef isn’t available.
Desired Experience:
- Specialized Food Preparation: Experience in preparing food tailored to the specific needs of residents.
- Care Environment Experience: Experience working in a care environment is beneficial but not essential.
Our Care Home is part of Care Concern Group; a market leading, family-owned care group operating over 70 homes across the UK. We are passionate about creating fantastic care homes for our residents to live in and a supportive and fun environment for our team to work in.
