creative in menu development and food preparation
an excellent team player
adaptable and flexible
someone with excellent verbal and written communication skills.
We like our Cooks to have a food hygiene certificate and a relevant catering qualification, but these aren't necessary.

We offer great rewards and perks including:
excellent supervision, peer support, learning opportunities and career prospects
