At Fairburn Community Primary School, we work hard as a team to provide our children with the very best education possible. Our school is a great place to be. It is exciting, challenging, warm, friendly and incredibly rewarding. We have high aspirations for all of our children – they deserve nothing less.

Are you passionate about food and want to have full autonomy over your working day? At Fairburn, we pride ourselves on creating a positive, nurturing environment for both pupils and staff.

What you’ll be doing:

As our sole school cook, you’ll play a key role in making sure our children receive healthy, nutritious, and delicious meals every day.

A Level 2 Food Hygiene certificate (or willingness to obtain one)
We would expect the successful school cook to have experience of running a small kitchen, or their own section of a bigger kitchen. You will need to have a good understanding of food safety and allergens.
This would be an ideal role if you have experience of managing a kitchen and would enjoy working alone in the kitchen but within the wider small school team, cooking for a set number daily and working weekdays only.
This role will require an enhanced DBS certificate

Friendly and respectful pupils
Training opportunities and ongoing support
