Chef in Milford, Surrey

Are you an experienced Chef tired of midnight closes and working split shifts, or just looking for a fresh start in new surroundings? If so, we are looking for a caring and dedicated Head Chef to join our catering team in a beautiful elderly Care Home just south of Milford.

Care Home Head Chef: Ref: PK71675

• £16.39-16.89 per hour
• 5 days per week, 7:30am to 5pm shifts
• Support of a Kitchen Assistant

The 40 bedded Care Home offers a lovely modern kitchen in a fantastic semi-rural setting. Residents have access to beautiful communal lounges and dining rooms, as well as a beautiful, secure landscaped garden with outdoor seating to be enjoyed. The entire home recently underwent an extensive renovation to offer top-tier facilities across all aspects of the service.

The role of the Head Chef is to oversee the kitchen team and to lead the Kitchen Assistant to create balanced and nutritious meals. You will work to create inspiring mealtimes for all residents at the home, catering to all preferences and dietary requirements, using local and fresh produce where possible.

Head Chef candidates will ideally have a Food Hygiene Certificate and previous experience of working in a Care Home, School or similar environment. (Previous Care Home and IDDSI experience would be advantageous.)

The role would suit an experienced Care Home Sous-Chef looking to build on existing skills and run their own kitchen, or an established Head Chef or Kitchen Manager tired of the traditionally unsociable hours.

What we can offer the new Head Chef / Kitchen Manager

• £16.39-16.89 per hour
• Up to 5 days per week (7:30am-5pm shifts)
• Ongoing training and development
• Excellent support and a fun-loving, dedicated team
