Catering Manager

Are you passionate about nutritious food and enjoy working as part of a team? If so, an exciting opportunity has arisen to join our school as Catering Manager 

We are looking for a passionate and driven Catering Manager to deliver a first-class lunch service to our pupils in our modern, fully functional commercial kitchen. Our school mission statement, ‘broadening horizons with love laughter and learning’, permeates everything we do – the school kitchen is no different! We want our children to experience a range of exciting, healthy food choices.  

As a strong kitchen leader, you will inspire and motivate lunchtime staff to embed exceptional food standards for our pupils, staff, and visitors. As well as having excellent presentation, communication, and management skills, you will also have more than the standard ration of enthusiasm! We want to help make good lunchtime memories for our pupils: it’s essential that you can demonstrate flexibility and a positive attitude appropriate to our school environment.  

Ideally, you will have experience working within education catering and have a progressive career to date. We need you to demonstrate a real passion for high quality food and great customer service. Good knowledge of relevant health & safety and the ability to work within a set budget should also come high up on your skill set.  

St Mary’s is a proud partner academy of SNMAT. Being part of this Trust is unlike working for others because they share our drive to provide the very best quality of education for our children. We are not bound by corporate colours or policies, meaning that your input could truly make a difference to our provision.   

If you’re interested in working with us, then please complete the job application form which is available on our school website Home | St Mary Magdalene C of E Primary School (stmarymagdaleneprimary.co.uk) or via email to office@stmarys.snmat.org.uk.

Closing date: 10th June 2022 at 9am.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and would expect anyone joining our school to share the same ethos.  All candidates are subject to safer recruitment procedures. The post is subject to an enhanced DBS disclosure.
