An opportunity has arisen for a hard-working, reliable, friendly and enthusiastic individual to join our onsite catering team at St Hugh’s School.
The working days for this role will be Monday to Friday inclusive, 9.00am to 3.00pm during term time.
Your role will be to work within the in-house catering team, collaborating closely with the team to produce freshly prepared lunches for pupils and school staff.

Previous catering experience in a similar environment is desirable although full training will be given.
St Hugh’s is a highly regarded co-educational day and boarding school. We are situated on a beautiful green campus of 40 acres in the South Oxfordshire countryside, only 25 minutes from Central Oxford. In June 2025, the Headmaster and Governors announced that St Hugh’s would be opening a Senior School in September 2026. This opportunity is representative of the forecasted growth of the school in the years ahead. It is a very exciting time to be joining St Hugh’s.
St Hugh’s staff are an outstanding, hard-working and collaborative team who aim to give all our children academic and pastoral experience in a nurturing environment with wide ranging facilities. Each child is, therefore, able to discover what they are good at, thrive and gain confidence in themselves.
