Hawke's Bay, New Zealand Cater Plus Services Full time

Who is Cater Plus?

Cater Plus is a company that prides itself on excellent service and works hard to deliver catering solutions that are innovative, dependable, and cost effective. From managing onsite cafés, providing catering for corporate functions, or designing custom menus for staff, residents, patients, or guests, we have the passion and experience to improve food service efficiencies and deliver superior solutions. Join our team, made up of over five hundred individuals, who live our values, and where our people are what truly makes this company stand out from the rest.

The role

In this role you will:

- Be responsible for driving day-to-day operations of 3 industrial staff cafés within the Hastings area.
- Be actively involved in the creation of menus, cooking, and presentation of food and delivery of functions, whilst catering to a varied clientele.
- Ensure full staff coverage over a 5-day roster including daytime and evening shifts.
- Manage food and labour costs within an agreed budget.
- Oversee New Zealand Food Control and Safety regulations within your sites.
- Work in partnership with the Regional Operations Manager and the wider business to implement development strategies and foster an engaged workforce.
- Manage and support the catering for functions whilst actively promoting Cater Plus and seeking out new business opportunities.

This is a multifaceted role which requires someone who can think on their feet, be adaptive and who thrives in a fast-paced environment. We need someone who has strong staff management and recruitment skills, whilst being commercially and financially savvy and has a strong customer-centric focus, and excellent stakeholder engagement skills.

Being an experienced chef is a prerequisite for this role. You will need to be supportive of your teams, understand the business challenges, be able to quickly resolve issues, identify opportunities for improvement, and be prepared to get in and roll up your sleeves when necessary.

Most importantly we are looking for someone with a positive attitude, self-managed and energetic to fit our culture.

Ordinarily working Monday to Friday, some flexibility will be required to ensure coverage over the 5-day roster. With 2 weeks closure at Christmas, and public holidays off, you will enjoy regular breaks and that all important opportunity to rest and recharge.
