Are you looking for a hospitality role with flexibility and convenient hours which don’t impact your evenings?

The Café at Lakeland, based in Windermere is looking to recruit a Kitchen Assistant to join our friendly team at an exciting time for the café, which is now part of the wider Lakeland business.

As a Kitchen Assistant you will have responsibility for your own section within the busy kitchen, this will include stock control, ordering and food preparation. In addition, you will ensure the general upkeep of the kitchen is always to the highest of standards.

About You

Experience in a similar role is vital and the ideal person would have loads of enthusiasm, a fun personality and be a great team player.

Who we are

Founded in the early 60s, with the same strong values of quality and customer care now as when we first started. From selling plastic bags for home freezing from the Rayner family garage in Windermere, to over 4000 kitchen and home products today, Lakeland has grown to the extent that we now send out thousands of parcels a day from our Kendal despatch centre, and we have stores nationwide, stretching from Aberdeen to Exeter, with more in the pipeline.

Benefits

There are many benefits to being part of the Lakeland team. Other than being part of a huge and happy working family, our colleagues are rewarded with a competitive salary and a group personal pension plan.

There are 29 days’ paid holiday (including bank holidays) and generous discounts on our products. We offer a great retail environment, and the chance to be part of a team who like to work and socialise together.
