The role

In the role of Catering Supervisor, you will be working closely with the Assistant Manager; assisting with the management and operational requirements of three cafés and one food court.

You will be leading the team to achieve a high standard of customer service, in a proactive and positive manner; continuously promoting and contributing towards our culture of inclusivity.

The working hours are on a full-time basis. You will need to be flexible in terms of working hours which will include some evenings and weekends as part of the regular working week, rota patterns are on a 5 days out of 7 basis. The role is predominantly based around Highfield Campus but you will be required to travel between campuses to supervise operations as required.

Additional working benefits include a daily lunch allowance, time off over the Easter and Christmas period due to University Closure days, bank holidays and a 36 hour working week.

About you

You will be a highly motivated and proactive individual with a ‘can-do’ attitude, capable of multi-tasking and ensuring exceptional attention to detail. Experience in the financial management of a catering business would be beneficial, but it is not essential.

What we can offer you

As a university we aim to create an environment where everyone can thrive and are proactive in fostering a culture of inclusion, respect and equality of opportunity. We believe that we can only truly meet our objectives if we are reflective of society, so we are passionate about creating a working environment in which you are free to bring your whole self to work. We welcome applications from candidates who are committed to helping us create an inclusive work environment.
