- **Manawatu - Palmerston North**:

- **Food Preparation Worker**

**KITCHEN HAND - Part Time - 11 hours per week**

**_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.

This friendly and welcoming community, exudes warmth and homeliness. Willard Home has strong community connections and the sound of children’s laughter often fills the halls - that’s because the home has strong ties with the neighboring school and nearby childcare centre.

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.

**_About the Role_**

As a Kitchen hand, you will be responsible for assisting the Food Services Team Leader to prepare and serve tasty and nutritious means for lunch and dinner. We are looking for someone who is confident in the kitchen but we can provide additional training to ensure you get off to a great start.

Duties involve:

- Preparation of morning tea, and lunchtimes
- Clear tables when all residents have finished eating
- 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

We have a fixed term contract available until the 2nd of November 2023 (Sunday 08.00 - 15.30 and Monday 15.30 - 19.30) within our Home. If you are able to work flexibly and pick up occasional additional hours across the full 7 day week, it's always a bonus, so willingness and ability to do this is truly appreciated within the Home.

**_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 kitchen (preferred)
- Good communication skills and have a person centred approach
- High standards of personal hygiene and appearance
- If you hold a food safety/hygiene certificate, that would be great but if you don't have one we can train you in what you need to know
- 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?_**
- 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
- Benefit from our staff well-being calendar - regular events and programmes to promote wellness for all of us
- 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 evenings or late nights in our kitchen, unlike other catering or hospitality roles

**We are a great place to work and one where you will be able to thrive and deliver the best of yourself. Come join us today**

**_How to Apply:_**

As a community health care provider, Enliven operates a strict smoke free policy across all our sites.
