Full job description

Join a nursery group where quality, care and people genuinely matter.

We are a family-run group of Montessori nurseries, with over 30 years of experience, offering authentic Montessori education in beautiful, carefully prepared environments.

With 7 locations across London, we’re looking for an experienced Chef to join us in an exciting and varied role as our Float Nursery Cook / Kitchen Assistant.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, being busy and working in different environments. You’ll provide cover for our Nursery Cooks and Kitchen Assistants when they are away, working across our London settings. When cover isn’t needed, you’ll work as a Kitchen Assistant within one of our nurseries.

The hours are guaranteed, so you’ll always have a full working week, with the opportunity to experience different kitchens, teams and settings.

The role

  • £16.30 per hour

  • Monday–Friday

  • 40 guaranteed hours per week

  • 8-hour days, including break

  • Permanent, all year round

  • Cover across 7 London locations

You’ll prepare nutritious, high-quality food for young children when working as a Nursery Cook, and support our kitchen teams with food preparation, organisation, cleaning and maintaining excellent hygiene standards.

You’ll need to be confident adapting to different kitchens and teams, and happy to step into whatever is needed on the day.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for an experienced Chef who is:

  • Passionate about food and takes pride in their work

  • Warm, reliable and adaptable

  • Comfortable working across different kitchens and with different teams

  • Organised, energetic and enjoys staying busy

  • Confident working independently and as part of a team

  • Experienced in professional kitchen environments

  • Committed to excellent food hygiene, safety and cleanliness

  • Interested in working with young children and learning about early years food provision

Previous nursery experience is not essential. We will provide specific training for working in an early years environment, including nutrition, allergies, safeguarding, food safety and the particular requirements of preparing food for young children.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility at Newpark.

Although this is a kitchen-based role, you will be working within our nurseries and around young children. You’ll be expected to understand and follow our safeguarding and child protection procedures, maintain appropriate professional boundaries and contribute to a safe environment where children’s wellbeing always comes first.

All appointments are subject to enhanced DBS, references, right-to-work checks and our safer recruitment process.

Why Newpark?

  • 40 guaranteed hours every week

  • Monday–Friday, no weekends

  • Authentic Montessori environments

  • A 30+ year family-run organisation

  • Work across 7 London locations

  • Experienced and supportive leadership

  • Full training for the early years environment

  • London Living Wage accredited

  • Healthcare Cash Plan and free virtual GP

  • Wellbeing support

  • Loyalty and attendance rewards

  • Staff childcare discount and family-friendly benefits

  • Pension, Cycle Scheme and Tech Scheme

  • Staff events and social activities

  • A friendly team where people are valued

If you’re an experienced Chef who enjoys variety, likes to stay busy and would love a role where every day can be different, we’d love to hear from you.

Newpark Childcare is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and is an equal opportunities employer.
