Catering Assistants
Food-safe catering staff with HACCP, allergen awareness, and the hygiene standards healthcare kitchens require.
What We Offer
Our catering assistants support kitchen teams with food preparation, plating, serving, and clean-down in healthcare environments. Each candidate must meet mandatory food safety/HACCP, allergen awareness, cleaning & sanitisation, infection prevention, fire safety, and manual handling requirements before activation. We look for friendly, team-oriented staff who follow hygiene protocols carefully and understand resident dignity during meal service — with modified diet and dementia awareness as strong preferences for nursing home placements.
The ideal catering assistant is approachable, punctual, and hygiene-focused — working well in teams and understanding resident care in a dining context.
