We’re looking for a Catering Supervisor to join our Hotel Services team based at The Princess Grace Hospital in London . From managing a team, producing weekly rotas and ordering supplies, to creating a positive and energised working environment, you’ll use your catering or hospitality experience to ensure we deliver an outstanding culinary service for our patients, visitors and staff. You’ll help us create and serve meals that are every bit as fresh, eye-opening and enticing as those served by the best hotels and restaurants. This is a chance to get great kitchen experience while enjoying the kind of benefits few commercial restaurants are able to provide.
The big difference between this role and a more standard Catering Supervisor is that the work you do will be a vital part of the total care package we offer, helping as many patients as possible to return to full health quicker.

As a Catering Supervisor you’ll be both professional and friendly – someone who’s completely focused on customer service, with a can-do attitude.
Above all else, we’re committed to the care and improvement of human life. It’s this guiding vision that influences everything we do at HCA UK. From the CEO to the colleagues on the floor we all have a part to play in delivering exceptional care to our patients. Other’s may think this is just a role in Catering but to us, you’ll be part of a wider team with a unique sense of purpose, one that helps improve lives on a daily basis.

- hold a Level 3 Food Hygiene and Safety certificate in catering (or similar)
