Our client, a reputable and award-winning children’s services provider, recently recognised as one of the Best Workplaces and officially certified as a Great Place To Work, is now looking to welcome a Nursery Chef to their team in Bristol.
This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a nurturing and supportive setting where you can make a real difference in children's lives through healthy, nutritious meals — and be part of a business that puts people at its heart.
Join us and enjoy a host of attractive benefits, including:
Recommend friends and family to work with us and receive a cash bonus
Generous childcare discount
31 days annual leave including bank holidays (FTE), with an extra 3 days over Christmas

What you will be doing:
Designing and preparing 6-monthly seasonal menus, taking into account feedback from catering staff, Nursery Managers, and Regional Managers
Supporting and guiding catering staff and working closely with the Nursery Manager to ensure meal preparation meets high standards
Monitoring kitchen and food safety standards to maintain compliance and excellence
Assisting with the recruitment and onboarding of catering staff
Auditing nursery kitchens to ensure they meet internal and external food safety requirements (TCC and PSN)
Ensuring all kitchen paperwork is accurate, up-to-date, and compliant
Building strong, professional relationships with nursery staff to create a collaborative kitchen environment
Previous experience in similar settings — such as nurseries, schools, care homes, or hospitals — is highly desirable, particularly where nutritional needs and food hygiene are a priority.
We are proud to be certified as a Great Place To Work, reflecting our commitment to creating a positive, thriving culture where team members feel valued, supported, and empowered. Our mission is to deliver high-quality childcare and education — and we know this starts with the people who help fuel happy, healthy children every day.
