The Vacancy

Nursery Relief Chef - Full Time - London - £31,806.96 + amazing benefits

This relief chef role could be based at our Stockwell Nursery and Pre-School or another central London nursery. You will have a 'home' nursery and you will be required to cover other sites as needed. Additional travel expenses above usual travel costs will be covered. 

Work in a friendly kitchen and enjoy working with children every day

"When I arrive at the nursery in the morning, the children's faces light up." - Conchobar, Senior Chef

We're the London Early Years Foundation, or LEYF Nurseries for short; a family of 40 nurseries. Our people love working for us because we focus on the child and their family, and give them the best start in life.

We give you strong in-house training at our Chef Academy. You'll work sociable hours in a friendly environment, and you'll love interacting with the children in your nursery.

What's in it for you?

"It's not just a kitchen job; you get engaged with the children a lot." - Bruno, Chef

  • An extra £1,000 uplift in your salary (for 40-hour week qualified chefs) when you complete our inhouse Early Years Chef Academy
  • You work sociable hours - no evenings or weekends
  • Generous pension at 7% from us (1% from you)
  • 70% discount on childcare fees
  • Up to 35 days off a year, including 8 bank holidays, 3 days off between Christmas and New Year, and your birthday (pro-rated for part-time hours)
  • Lots of training, promotions and nurturing work environment
  • Sector-leading parental leave
  • Many other benefits that take care of you, including access to the Headspace app, shopping discounts, annual conference and money for team celebrations

A bit about the role

"It's a different working environment - a lot friendlier and calmer." - Conor, Senior Chef

LEYF is passionate about making sure our children are as safe, fit and healthy as possible. Critical to this is ensuring children eat delicious and nutritious food every day and develop healthy eating habits for life. We know that the nursery chef is critical to this, so we invest heavily in our nursery chefs, and they are integral to the nursery team.

The Early Years Relief Chef will act as a roving Chef providing support and cover to LEYF’s nurseries in London as needed when permanent chefs are absent or there are vacancies. You will be allocated a “home nursery” which will be Deanery Road Nursery and Pre-School. Travel expenses beyond the cost of the home nursery will be reimbursed.

You will need:

  • The right to work in the UK
  • A positive attitude and excited to work with children
  • Food Hygiene Level 2 or equivalent, or be willing to do the course in the first week of work (paid for by LEYF)

The Company has experienced unprecedented growth over the past few years. We have a vast number of employees, and provide support to clients from all over the country.
