Kitchen Assistant

Are you known for being all about the details? Do you like to be working behind the scenes, being trusted to ensure everything runs smoothly?

What will I be responsible for as a Kitchen Assistant?

There are the types of people who throw a tantrum as you add another plate to the sink when they are washing the dishes, people who can't cope with change. This definitely won't be you – you'll be committed to delivering a pristine and organised kitchen for your team, in addition to supporting deliveries and ordering the storeroom. You'll be able to spin on your feet and help where help is needed!

Is this Kitchen Assistant role right for me?

• To be a successful kitchen porter, you'll be able to carry out tasks quickly, ensuring the finer details are treated as important and vital to that outstanding, memorable experience
• You'll enjoy working on your own and be confidently able to use your initiative, thriving in an environment when you are trusted, but be able to follow instructions from your team
• You'll be able to spin 100 plates at once. Not literally, but you're someone who thrives under pressure and is able to react quickly to change.
