Cook - Doncaster
Do you believe in the power of adventure?
Play your part in Dearne Valley's exciting journey. In January this year, Dearne Valley was acquired by PGL Beyond and we're already busy welcoming guests and making improvements, ahead of its relaunch as a new PGL centre in 2026. This is your chance to be part of Dearne Valley's exciting transformation.
Make a difference as a Cook
Having fun is hungry work! Our catering team is proud to serve tasty & nutritious meals, combining reassuring favourites and new cuisines, to keep the adventure going.
As a Cook you'll be part of a friendly & supportive catering team, reporting into the Head Chef. You'll provide first class nutritious meals for our many hungry guests without the pressure of menu creation or sourcing ingredients from scratch. You'll be responsible for food preparation, cooking, stock ordering & organisation, cost control & coaching of junior team members. You'll have a Friday or Saturday evening off most weeks, especially outside of our peak season (plus limited late nights!), and no working over Christmas - this could be the perfect role to develop your career in catering without sacrificing your social life or that all important family time!
Is this you?
A place to thrive
No matter your background, ethnicity, age, neurodivergence or anything else ... this is a place to be yourself, have fun, make lifelong friends and celebrate what makes you brilliantly unique.
Putting our people first
However, our top priority is the safety of the guests on our centres. Therefore, all employees must undergo an Enhanced criminal records check (known as DBS or PVG), which we pay for. You will need to provide a 5-year address history and ID (such as passport/birth certificate). Convictions related to violence, drugs, or safeguarding may affect your application. Not all convictions will disqualify you, as we assess each case individually. #DoncasterChefFeb
