Prep Cook

About The Role
Join the Filling Station team at Rheged ad help us to serve fresh, tasty food to our visitors throughout the day.

The role will involve breakfast prep, so an early start is essential, to enable you to prepare and cook our breakfast favourites including bacon and sausages, and keep warm rolls ready for the morning rush.

Lunchtime prep will include cooking food for your colleagues to serve to our customers, hot pies, soup and our famous sausage rolls, all made in house by our Westmorland Kitchen food team. You will need to keep a continuous supply making sure they are fresh, hot and well stocked at all times.

You will also be preparing some of our cold lunch items such as our freshly made baguettes, taking care that every ingredient is fresh and everything is made to our high standards.

You will need to ensure that our food items are kept replenished throughout the day to ensure customers are encouraged to buy our freshly prepared products and you will maintain a high standard of cleanliness and hygiene in our kitchen area and follow all relevant food hygiene and allergen guidelines.

When it quietens in the kitchen you will also support your colleagues on the Deli counter, making coffees and serving customers on the tills.

If you take pride in good food and enjoy being part of a fast paced but friendly team we would love to hear from you!
About You
You should have a positive 'can do mindset, a passion for delivering great customer service and a willingness to learn about our products.

If you have previous experience in a kitchen environment that's great but don't worry if you don't. We offer full training to get you up to speed and give you knowledge of all our products and how we work at the Westmorland Family.
