You:

You're a hard-working individual with experience working in a busy kitchen. Ideally, you've already got some experience in a care home setting. You're also a caring person who understands how important mealtimes are to older, vulnerable people. You're a good team player who takes pride in your job and is happy to go the extra mile. You know the importance of food hygiene and health and safety rules. Above all, you want to be a valued member of a friendly team. You're keen to progress in your catering career and do your bit to improve the nutrition of older people.

Your role:

Reporting to the Head Chef, you'll make sure all kitchen equipment and areas are properly cleaned.

As part of our hard-working team, you'll also help prepare tasty, nutritious meals that our residents and guests will enjoy.

For example, you'll take pressure off the chefs by cooking breakfast in the mornings. At main mealtimes, you'll add those much-loved finishing touches like custard or gravy.

You'll be responsible for safe, hygienic food storage and for making sure kitchen equipment and cleaning materials are kept in their correct places.

In return, we'll give you lots of support, training and opportunities to progress in your career.

About Care UK:

We run over 120 homes and day clubs across the UK. We provide residential, nursing, dementia and end-of-life care for older people.

As one of the UK's leading care home providers, our goal is to help every employee fulfil his or her potential - with first-class training and support.

Mills Meadow fully opened in 2015, providing residential and dementia care for up to 60 residents.

A new day club is also open on the same site, offering older people from the local area a change of scene, a chance to meet new people and to do fun activities in a safe and supportive environment.

The dedicated and professional team at our Framlingham care home focuses on enabling residents to enjoy a fulfilling life, whatever their needs and abilities.

We work with you and your loved one to learn about their life stories, interests and preferences so that we can create personalised care and activity plans - and even menus - that ensure your loved one receives care that's as unique as they are.
