Ever imagined being a Head Chef and still having a social life? Experience the blend of being a Head Chef while maintaining a vibrant life outside of work.
This role offers a refreshing change from the typical culinary demands - 5:30pm finish meaning your evenings are free, a five-day work week and keeping the stress levels low.
You will be leading an established kitchen team at All Saints Hospital in Oldham overseeing the preparation of large-scale meals for the staff and service users. Your role extends beyond the kitchen, as you provide guidance and training to support your team.
There are regular activities, events and special occasions throughout the year which you’ll also cater for – world food day, Christmas, Easter, family day etc. In other words, plenty of chance to be creative and do something different.
It’s a calm and pleasurable working environment, where you’ll be able to manage your workload and enjoy creating delicious meals. There’s a great social aspect to this role where you can interact with people outside the kitchen regularly.
You and your catering team will run the kitchen to hotel/restaurant standards, ensuring a smooth operation with a clean kitchen, tasty menu and happy ‘customers’.
Just imagine… great job satisfaction, home in time for dinner every night and two days off a week. Now that’s a recipe for a balanced work-life combo.
