Kitchen Porter

New Lanark Mill Hotel
Up to 35–40 hours per week

We are looking for a reliable and hardworking Kitchen Porter to join our kitchen team at New Lanark Mill Hotel.

This is an important role within the kitchen, helping to maintain high standards of cleanliness and ensuring the kitchen team has clean crockery, equipment and utensils available throughout service.

Main Responsibilities

• Operating the commercial dishwasher throughout the day and during service periods.
• Ensuring crockery, cutlery and kitchen equipment are washed, dried and stored correctly.
• Carrying out pot washing, including pots, pans and cooking equipment.
• Maintaining a high standard of cleanliness throughout the kitchen and wash-up areas.
• Completing regular deep-cleaning duties.
• Ensuring waste is disposed of correctly and waste areas are kept clean and organised.
• Keeping floors, surfaces and work areas clean and safe.
• Supporting the kitchen team with general cleaning and other duties when required.
• Following all food hygiene, health & safety and COSHH procedures.

What We Are Looking For

The successful candidate should be:

• Reliable, punctual and willing to work as part of a busy team.
• Thorough and have excellent attention to detail, particularly when it comes to cleanliness.
• Able to work efficiently during busy service periods.
• Able to take instruction and direction from the Head Chef and Deputy Head Chef and complete tasks to the required standard.
• Comfortable carrying out physical work and being on their feet for much of the shift.
• Willing to maintain consistently high standards throughout the working day.

Previous kitchen porter or commercial kitchen experience would be helpful but is not essential, as training can be provided.

Hours & Shift Pattern

The position is available for up to 35–40 hours per week, working 5 days out of 7.

Typical shift patterns will generally be:

• Evening shifts: approximately 3.00pm / 4.00pm until 10.00/10.30pm
• Day shifts: approximately 7.00/8.00am until 2.00/3.00pm

As the hotel is busiest at weekends, regular weekend working is an expected part of the role. Days off will therefore tend to fall during the week, although rotas will vary depending on business requirements.

If you are hardworking, dependable and take pride in maintaining high standards of cleanliness, we would be pleased to hear from you.
