**Mo matou** - **About Us**

Our Enliven services create age-friendly communities where people are happy and thrive, regardless of their age or ability. Our homes and villages are places where older people have companionship, choice, variety, fun, meaningful activity and a sense of purpose.

Enliven is a not-for-profit service providing aged residential care to older people in the lower half of the North Island. We believe older people should remain connected to their community and live stimulating and fulfilling lives.

As a Cook, you will be responsible for assisting the Food Services Team Leader to prepare and serve tasty and nutritious means for lunch and dinner.

- Prepare morning and afternoon tea, as well as daily mealtimes
- Ensure meals are served at the appropriate size and temperature
- Maintain daily food and fridge temperature checks
- Operate within food hygiene standards and protocols
- Be considerate of residents during mealtimes and ensure their needs are met appropriately

This position is 48 hours per fortnight: Thursday through to Sunday on week one and Thursday and Friday on week two. If you are willing and able to pick up additional hours to cover for leave it's always a bonus and much appreciated within the Home. Our kitchen and dining hours do not operate late into the evenings, so it's the perfect hospitality role with hours that enable you to have some work/life balance. No more late nights working while everyone else is socialising

**Mo koe** - **About You**

As well as a passion for the wellbeing of older people, you will be enthusiastic but patient and well organized with great interpersonal skills and sense of humor. You will share our values of empathy, compassion, and respect. You will also have:

- Experience working in a commercial kitchen, preparing meals for large groups of mixed dietary needs
- Good communication skills and have a person centred approach
- High standards of personal hygiene and appearance
- You will hold a food safety/hygiene certificate
- Enjoy being able to contribute to the work of your team and how this impacts the experiences of our residents

**What’s in it for me?**
- A progressive pay scale that recognizes your qualifications; $24.50 - $26.70 per hour, based on skills & experience
- As a learning organization, you will be provided with full training and support in your role, so you orientate quickly and feel well equipped in your role.
- Enliven may facilitate you in gaining qualifications while you work, so you can develop your skills and career
- Staff Wellbeing activities, focusing on a different aspect of our personal Health and Wellbeing
- Being part of a values based organization means we care for each other; we care about what we do and how we do it
- Be part of a supportive team environment and get job satisfaction from being of service to others
- No late nights in our kitchen, unlike other catering or hospitality roles
