As a Kitchen Porter at Holiday Inn Manchester City Centre, you'll play an integral role in ensuring that our kitchen runs smoothly so that, as a team, you're creating outstanding, memorable experiences. Without you and your rubber gloves, your team of Chefs couldn't deliver. We know it's not uncommon for Kitchen Porter's to sometimes get overlooked, but to us – you'll be something of a hero. Why else do you think there's an award for best Kitchen Porter each year?!

You'll be able to spin on your feet and help where help is needed!
