Do you have a passion for food? The National Trust is renowned for its food and hospitality. We run 185 cafes all over England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and we'd love you to be a part of it.
We’re looking for a Cook to join us. Because we are in a rural area, please think about how you’d be able to get here for work, before applying for the job.
Benefits: We want to help you look after the things that matter to you, such as saving for your future, getting a discount on your weekly shop, or encouraging you to find a work-life balance. Please read our package, below, to see what benefits we offer you.
Hours: This is a zero-hour contract, meaning we can’t guarantee a set number of hours each week. While we aim to provide a consistent work pattern, flexibility is needed as schedules may change based on business needs. We’ll try to give as much notice as possible.
Various days and hours available, includes weekends and bank holidays. Normal working hours are between 9am and 6pm, with some shorter days in the winter season. Occasional events take place in the summer in the evenings but these are not a regular occurrence and would be subject to your availability.
Salary: 12.75 per hour
Duration: Fixed Term Contract for 1 year
Potential start date: immediate start available
For this role, you’ll need to complete our online assessment instead of using a C.V. or online application form. This will help us understand more about your strengths and give you more information on the role.

someone who loves good food and has a friendly and positive attitude.
confident about following recipes and batch-cooking, and willing to learn.
aware of health and safety compliance.
