We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Catering Manager to oversee the catering provision at the Sutton Sports Village in Surrey. Sutton Sports Village is run by Better and boasts a trampoline park, soft play park, nursery, tennis courts, gymnastics hall, birthday parties, state-of-the-art gym and studios and is one of only a few of our facilities that provides an in-house catering function. We are an exceptionally busy catering site and as well as serving food and drinks to cafe customers we also prepare and cook food for up to 75 nursery children per day as well as for up to 32 birthday parties per weekend.

 

As a business, we take our social responsibility seriously - we support local suppliers where possible and use Fairtrade products as well as suppliers with social enterprise links. Understanding the potential requirements of our customers, you will source and order food and beverage items accordingly as well as inputting into the menu and even helping with the cooking when needed. As a significant proportion of the role involves the management of nursery food a strong understanding of allergens, food preparation and menu construction is vitally important. Due to the volume of food that is prepared on site the successful candidate must be highly organised and have strong time management. This role offers a real chance to show that you can take ownership and responsibility of the caf and come up with new ideas to make it a success with existing customers and potential new customers alike. The importance of customer care in this role is key and you'll lead and inspire your team to deliver the high standards that you expect. If you're successful in delivering a thriving and profitable business, there will be potential to expand the role to manage multiple cafes within our many facilities.

 

This role would suit an experienced team leader/manager from a caf environment or catering manager with ambitions to take their career to the next level. You'll be an excellent team player with a Food Hygiene Certificate Level 3, COSHH knowledge and ideally an NVQ Level 2 in Catering & Hospitality. Naturally, you'll understand the business side of catering such as managing P&L accounts and budgets, running bespoke events and even marketing input.
