We are now seeking a Chef / Catering Manager to lead the Catering team to deliver a high-quality catering service for students, staff and visitors to the Academy, whilst ensuring high standards for health, safety and food hygiene.

In order to focus and being able to learn well they must have the right balance of food and nutrients. We are looking for an experienced Chef to use their creative skills to deliver a world-class menu for our children. In the next eighteen months we will be moving to a brand-new school at Broadway that will have a state of the art kitchen in order to support the chef and their team. The successful candidate will get to shape this kitchen and use their creative idea and skills to ensure all children at St Edward’s love having nourishing and tasty meals each day.
What we need:
