Full Time Warminster, England 10.58 GBP HOURLY Today
Job description

Do you have an interest in cooking, like the idea of working in a busy kitchen and have a desire to progress?

We have a number of entry level Kitchen Assistant positions available, where no experience is required as we will provide full training to get you to the next level – with a pay increase when you have successfully completed your training.

Kitchen Assistant / Commis Chef ‘Fast Track Opportunity’ | £10.58 per hour rising to £11.20 per hour when trained

The training programme is for 6 weeks (based on full-time hours), where you will have the opportunity to work in one of our kitchen environments; from grills and burgers in our American diner to fine Indian fusion cuisine.

In addition to our great range of standard and unique benefits, you’ll also receive:

  • A share of tips – which are evenly split based on hours worked
  • Your uniform will be provided and laundered

All colleagues working in the following restaurants: Rajinda Pradesh, Huck's American Bar and Grill, The Pancake House, Sports Café, The Lakeside Inn, Foresters' Inn and Vitalé Café Bar will benefit from the discretionary service charge we add to bills. The majority of our guests are happy to reward our colleagues for their excellent service.

THE ROLE

As a fast-track chef you will learn and progress from the ground floor up, helping with the preparation, cooking and presentation of food, working to the highest standards and in an environment that combines popular menus and quality food with the very best in service.

Duties will include:

  • The preparation, cooking and presentation of food to menu specifications
  • Learning about stock control, portion control and food wastage
  • Understanding dietary requirements
  • How to use specialist kitchen equipment safely and correctly
  • Keeping a safe and hygienic working environment
  • Keeping the kitchen clean, tidy and organised

You will be given all the training and support you need to succeed, from your dedicated trainer / manager and our online learning portal.

HOURS OF WORK

Working straight shifts, you will be contracted to work 150 hours per 4-week period on a flexible basis. This means that your days and hours of work could vary each week, but you will always receive at least your contracted hours each period.

We have a range of shifts, including daytimes, evenings and weekends, so you must be flexible in terms of working hours but we will gladly discuss your requirements at interview stage.

The ideal candidate will have a passion for food, have good communication skills, enjoy working as part of a team and have the desire to learn and develop.

No previous experience is required
