The role:

As a Catering Assistant, you will be a vital part of the team, supporting our kitchen in basic food preparation and delivering excellent service that makes the lunchtime rush run smoothly.

You’ll be making a real difference through responsibilities that include:

  • Customer Interaction: Working on the tills during service (don’t worry, full training is provided!).
  • Front-Line Service: Providing friendly, polite customer service to all students and staff.
  • Essential Support: Assisting the team with basic food preparation

  • You’re a team player and thrive as part of a busy team
  • You have previous catering or fast-paced service experience
  • You have a basic knowledge of health and safety practices
  • The Food Hygiene Level 2 qualification is great, but not essential as we can provide the training!

Why Join the Aspens Family?

You’ll work Monday to Friday during school term time - that means no late nights, no weekends and no working at Christmas!

  • 17.5 hours per week
  • 38 weeks per year - what will you do with all that time off?
  • £12.71 per hour
