My career at Myerscough College – Inspiring Excellence

The Commercial Services area at Myerscough College has undergone a positive restructure which has resulted in growth. A number of vacancies are available and we would love you to be part of this new and exciting team at a time where we are looking at fresh ideas, creativity, and a desire to improve and build on an already brilliant team.

About the role

Our Food and Beverage team ensure that a number of different outlets across our Preston campus are available for our customers. We have a main restaurant, a tea room, cafes and snack outlets so you will have the opportunity to prepare and cook a variety of dishes and really show your skills.

Our customer base is primarily students, both residential and day, but we also cater for staff, visitors and events, so we operate all year round (apart from our close down period over Christmas and New Year!).

We are looking for someone to join our team who has the skills and experience as a chef but who is also enthusiastic, customer-focused, positive and willing to share ideas. If you think this is you, please click on the job description below for more information. In return, we offer generous holiday entitlements, training and professional development, a close down period over Christmas and New Year, and much more. We can’t wait to hear from you.

Safeguarding our students is of paramount importance. Our recruitment process has been designed to keep students safe and to ensure that we appoint safe and suitable people.

All successful applicants will be required to undertake pre-employment background and safeguarding checks.

The successful applicant will be responsible for complying with all safeguarding policies and practices, and for ensuring student safety and wellbeing is at the forefront of everything they do.

This post is not exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974.

We are an equal opportunity employer; we want all our candidates to have a fair and equal opportunity to secure employment with us. We encourage applications from all underrepresented groups: BAME applicants, disabled applicants, and LGBT+ applicants.
