Cook/Chef

Chef / Cook
St Mary's Convent, Wantage

Are you passionate about preparing delicious, traditional home-cooked food? Would you like to work in a beautiful setting where your work is genuinely valued and you can enjoy an excellent work-life balance?

St Mary's Convent is a unique community, retreat centre and conference venue in the heart of Wantage. We are looking for a Chef/Cook to join our small, friendly and dedicated kitchen team.

We are proud of our reputation for serving high-quality, freshly prepared meals, with many ingredients grown in our own beautiful gardens. You'll prepare traditional meals for our resident community, retreat guests and conference visitors, along with occasional hospitality catering for special events.

Working at St Mary's offers something different from a typical hospitality role. You'll enjoy:

• A welcoming and supportive team.
• A large, modern and airy kitchen overlooking our beautiful gardens.
• A fantastic work-life balance with fewer hours than many catering positions.
• A peaceful and rewarding working environment where staff are genuinely appreciated and recognised for the contribution they make.

If you're looking for a role where you can take pride in your cooking while enjoying a better balance between work and home life, we'd love to hear from you.

Come and meet us and see what makes St Mary's such a special place to work.
