East Whitburn, United Kingdom HC One Full time

In your role as an Assistant Chef at HC-One, you’ll value one thing above all. Kindness. This is for Weekends only. It carries across every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist Care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our Residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. By joining HC-One you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.

As an Assistant Chef that will mean cooking and serving nutritious, healthy meals that our Residents will love. You’ll provide outstanding support to our First Chef, taking charge in their absence.

And, whenever you communicate with a Resident or co-worker, you’ll be truly considerate and kind.

All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.
