Crynodeb
This is not your average catering. It is a great chance to put your catering qualifications and skills into practice and make an impact far beyond the kitchen.
As part of the prison’s catering team, you’ll be working in a professional industrial kitchen environment, with a good salary, pension and Civil Service benefits including apprenticeship opportunities ‘earn while you learn’. Unlike traditional restaurant jobs, you won’t have to work late into the evening.
You’ll oversee the work of offenders to prepare and cook quality, nutritional meals for the entire prison. Plus, you’ll play your part in helping them turn their lives around - supporting them to learn new skills and work towards gaining qualifications to increase their chances of employment and reduce their likelihood of reoffending when they leave prison.
Hours and salary
You will work a 37 hour week and shift patterns are in place which will include:
hours outside of 07:00 -19:00 Monday to Friday
weekends
bank holidays.
You will receive a 20% unsocial hours payment in addition to your basic pay, subject to working these hours. All roles can be open to part-time and job share arrangements subject to the business need/operational requirement. However, you will still be required to undertake the full range of shifts. As a new recruit, you will start on the minimum salary.
Band 4 salary minimum inclusive of 20% unsocial hours allowance - £42,218
Band 4 salary maximum inclusive of 20% unsocial hours allowance - £42,218
Qualifications and experience:
level 2 certificate in food production within hospitality and catering or equivalent
food hygiene certificate at Level 2
food hygiene certificate Level 3 (intermediate level)
working towards a relevant vocational qualification at Level 3 or already hold formal qualifications in catering e.g. City and Guilds 7061/7062 or NVQ Level 3
In addition, you must be:
familiar with all current health, safety and hygiene related regulations for working in a kitchen
able to demonstrate competency within an industrial kitchen environment.
Able to demonstrate team leadership experience
Please note refresher training in food safety (HACCP) should be completed at three year intervals.
An ability to fulfil all spoken aspects of the role with confidence through the medium of English or (where specified in Wales) Welsh is also required
Tips for applying:
You will need to provide an anonymised CV and answer questions which outline your past experience.
You will also need to answer specific ‘behavioural’ questions. We will ask you how you would react in your job.
Behaviours:
Developing Self and Others
Managing a Quality Service
Communicating and Influencing
Making Effective Decisions
Working together
