Overview

Behind the clatter of pans and the hum of service lies the heartbeat of the kitchen.

As a Kitchen Porter, you’ll keep that rhythm steady, supporting chefs and front of house in delivering a wide selection of hot dishes and fresh salads that change weekly.

More than just back of house, you’ll be part of the team that ensures guests receive seamless service - your efforts helping create a smooth, welcoming experience. It’s a role for someone who thrives in motion, values teamwork, and takes pride in being the strength behind the smiles.

The Role

• Maintain high standards of cleanliness in all hospitality kitchens (wash-up, floors, equipment, BOH areas).
• Receive goods, check quality and dates, and report discrepancies.
• Store items correctly and follow FIFO rotation.
• Maintain clean, organised dry stores and fridges.
• Ensure chefs always have clean equipment, trays, boards and utensils ready for service.
• Support waste and recycling procedures across all kitchens.
• Assist with basic prep when required (training provided).
• Follow all ISS food safety, health & safety and manual-handling standards.

About You

• Previous experience as a Kitchen Porter (hospitality or contract catering).
• Strong work ethic, reliability and pride in maintaining high cleanliness standards.
• Comfortable receiving deliveries and working systematically.
• Good communication and teamwork skills.
• A positive attitude - willing to help wherever needed.
