Kitchen Assistant
Location: Medway
Hours: Monday to Friday, 10:30 am–4:30 pm
Overtime: One additional shift available on Saturday 7th November, 5pm–9pm
Contract: Temporary, approximately one month
Essential qualifications: Level 2 Health & Safety and Level 2 Food Safety certificates
About the Role:
We’re looking for a reliable and hands-on Kitchen Assistant to support a new bar and kitchen in Medway as the team prepares to open and gets settled in.
This is a great opportunity to join a friendly, youthful environment and help get things up and running. The role will involve providing practical kitchen support, helping with basic food preparation and ensuring everything runs smoothly as the team finds its feet.
You don’t need to be a qualified chef or have years of kitchen assistant experience. We’re looking for someone who is happy to roll up their sleeves, get stuck in and support the team with day-to-day kitchen tasks.
Key Responsibilities:
- Assist with basic food preparation, including chopping vegetables and preparing ingredients.
- Support the kitchen team with reheating food and other straightforward kitchen tasks.
- Help keep the kitchen clean, tidy and organised throughout the day.
- Follow food hygiene, health and safety procedures at all times.
- Ensure work surfaces, utensils and equipment are cleaned appropriately.
- Assist with stock organisation and putting deliveries away where required.
- Support the team with general kitchen duties to help prepare for opening and daily service.
- Work collaboratively with the wider team and offer support wherever needed.
- Maintain a positive, flexible and can-do attitude in a busy working environment.
Essential Requirements:
- A valid Level 2 Food Safety certificate.
- A valid Level 2 Health & Safety certificate.
- A reliable and punctual approach to work.
- An understanding of basic kitchen hygiene and safe working practices.
- A willingness to get involved with practical tasks and support the team.
- The ability to work well with others and follow instructions.
Desirable Experience:
- Previous experience working in a kitchen, café, restaurant, bar or similar food service environment.
- Familiarity with basic food preparation and kitchen equipment.
- Experience maintaining clean and organised food preparation areas.
- Previous kitchen experience would be beneficial, but a positive attitude, reliability and a willingness to learn are just as important.
Working Hours:
The standard working hours are Monday to Friday, 10:30 am–4:30 pm, providing consistent daytime shifts.
There is also one additional overtime opportunity on Saturday 7th November, 5 pm–9 pm, to support an event.
What’s on Offer?
- A short-term opportunity for approximately one month.
- Consistent weekday hours with no regular evening shifts.
- The chance to be part of an exciting new opening.
- A lively university environment with a youthful atmosphere.
- An opportunity to gain experience supporting a kitchen team during its launch period.
The Ideal Candidate
- The ideal candidate will be dependable, practical and happy to help wherever needed.
- They’ll take pride in keeping the kitchen clean and organised, follow food safety procedures carefully and work well as part of a team.
This is a hands-on support role rather than a chef position, making it well suited to someone with basic kitchen experience who is looking for a short-term opportunity and can hit the ground running.
Please note: Level 2 Food Safety and Level 2 Health & Safety certificates are essential and non-negotiable. Candidates must hold both qualifications to be considered.
