Working as a head of kitchen for 13 years I have extensive experience in management and in people development. In my previous role I lead and oversaw all aspects of running a kitchen - these included

Stock control - making sure we had enough supplies for the job and making sure we managed our waste, also creating high quality off food standard and creating new meals for residents to try and making changes accordingly.

Supervising kitchen staff - creating and maintaining a high standard of working, cleaning and making sure food safety and quality was what it needed to be. Ensuring all COSHH laws are followed and taught correctly.

Creating staff rota's - managing all staff rota's, holidays and time off to create a good work life balance.

I have enjoyed every minute of working in a kitchen and I am now looking forward to using my skills as a kitchen assistant. My favourite part of working in a kitchen is being able to use my people skills and work within a team

  • Ensured highest standards of food hygiene and safety for customer satisfaction.
  • Collaborated with suppliers, ensuring timely delivery of fresh ingredients.
  • Fostered a positive working environment, promoting team cohesion and motivation.
