Barhaugh Hall Activity Centre, near Alston, Cumbria is looking for a Lead Cook.
Lead Cook is responsible for preparation of meals for children and teachers attending a Robinwood course and for Robinwood staff who choose to have Robinwood meals. The Catering Manager is in charge of overall catering provision. Lead cooks take charge of catering shifts when the Catering Manager is not on duty, but will also generally work with the head caterer on other shifts.
Shift details would be agreed on appointment, but may vary over the period of employment:
* Early shifts typically run from 6.00am to 3.30pm
* Late shifts typically run from 11.30am to 8.00pm
* Long core shifts typically run from 7am to 8pm (typically 1 a week)
* 5-day contract would be Monday to Friday - No weekends, No Friday evenings.
Robinwood centres only operate during school term time, so lead cooks have at least 12 weeks off each year. This time off is allocated during school holidays, but as Robinwood holidays are allocated to match the holiday pattern for the majority of schools that visit Robinwood, we cannot guarantee that all school holidays will exactly match those for schools where a centre is based.
Pay for lead cooks is £15.80 per hour (£27,934.40 per annum). 34hpw.
All Robinwood staff who work through to the end of the financial/calendar year, receive a profit bonus based on the profit achieved.
Free food is also provided when working.
Some previous work with children is useful, as well as excellent customer care skills and the ability to be positive, professional and supportive of others at all times. We take safeguarding very seriously and the successful applicants will need to complete an enhanced DBS check.
* We are enthusiastic and positive.
* Through supporting each other we achieve more as a team.
* We see through the eyes of our customers and provide excellence.
Robinwood is an award-winning company providing residential activity courses for primary schools. Apply now and be part of our happy, fun and engaged team!
