Monitor food and beverage quality, profitability, and customer satisfaction
Ensure compliance with food safety, HACCP, COSHH, and allergen management
Train, coach, and supervise staff, fostering a collaborative and positive working environment
Build strong relationships with residents and guests, ensuring a welcoming, customer-focused service

About you

Minimum 3 years’ relevant industry experience, with at least 1 year in a supervisory role
Food Safety Level 3 qualification (essential)
Strong knowledge of food safety management systems, HACCP, and COSHH
A passion for delivering exceptional food and service
Organised, reliable, and able to thrive under pressure
A team player who leads by example and embraces our values

Our values

At RVG, our values shape everything we do:

Age Well - creating opportunities for all to live well for longer
Community - believing in the power of togetherness
Keep Improving - always striving to do better
Invest Wisely - treating every penny as our own
Planet Positive - working to reduce our impact on the environment
One Team - supporting and learning from one another

Why join us?

Be part of an exciting restaurant in a welcoming, community-focused environment
Opportunity to influence menus, standards, and ways of working
Competitive pay and benefits package
Training and professional development to grow your career

Apply now to be part of our village restaurant at Debden Grange and help us deliver outstanding food and hospitality to our residents.
