Those who care for patients need looking after too.
From preparing meals to creating counter displays, you'll help us create and serve food that's every bit as fresh, eye-opening and enticing as those served by the best hotels and restaurants.
This is a chance to get great catering experience while enjoying the kind of benefits few commercial outlets are able to provide. But it's also a chance to brighten up the day for people who really need it. Perhaps you'll deliver the food, service and experience that can really help people on the road to recovery. Or provide much-needed fuel for our colleagues as they deliver exceptional care. Or offer a comforting meal to visitors when they're at their most vulnerable. Whatever you do, your work will have a big impact.
Who we're looking for
You'll be both professional and friendly - someone who's completely focused on customer service, with a can-do attitude. As well as this you'll:
- be aware of food and hygiene standards
- be passionate about customer care
- be able to communicate effectively with patients, visitors and healthcare staff
- be able to work under pressure, and with a flexible approach
