Catering Team Leader

Are you passionate about food, service, and leading a team? Join the University of Chester’s vibrant Hospitality & Events team as a Catering Team Leader and play a key role in delivering exceptional front-of-house service to our students, staff, and guests.

In this varied role, you’ll support the day-to-day running of our catering services, helping to supervise catering assistants, maintain hygiene standards, and ensure smooth service delivery across meals and events. You’ll also take the lead in the absence of supervisors and assist with food safety monitoring, including HACCP compliance. 

In return, you’ll benefit from a flexible working rota, only working one weekend in every three. During term time, any additional hours worked can be taken back as time off in lieu. During university holidays, these are paid as overtime. You’ll also enjoy 22 days of annual leave plus bank holidays and Christmas closure (rising to 27 days after five years), free uniform, discounted staff meals, and access to an excellent pension scheme. 

If you're ready to lead from the front and make a difference in a dynamic, rewarding environment, we’d love to hear from you.
