There are currently some great job vacancies at Gloucester Services Kitchens, so we spoke to colleague Crystal about working there, the opportunities on offer and her favourite dish... "My role at Gloucester Services is Executive Chef. My career in food started at 16. I was a terribly shy waitress at weekends, so my boss vowed he had to teach me to cook. I then got snapped up by a fantastic traditional Cotswolds pub, where I was given the opportunity to study my Level 3 Professional Cookery apprenticeship, whilst working full time alongside the Head Chef. Since then I have worked in all different environments, including Hotels in the French Alps, a Sailing Hotel in Greece, Hilton Hotels, and running the catering for Cheltenham Bournside School. Now 20 years later I still love the simple things, food is my passion, and adrenaline courses through my veins for service in the kitchen! Working here at Gloucester Services, no two days are ever the same. We have a fantastic team who always have each other’s backs. And we love nothing better than rolling up our sleeves and getting stuck in on a busy day! Another great thing about Gloucester Services is the opportunity to develop in all kitchens. We’re lucky to have our production kitchen and bakery on site, so there’s always something new to learn. We currently have vacancies for chefs and Kitchen Team members. For both of these roles, it’s all about wanting to learn, and loving the buzz of a busy day! Our kitchen team members require no previous experience, just a love of food, being organised and able to multi-task. For our chefs, experience in a busy kitchen is a bonus, and able to take charge and get stuck in. In terms of shifts, we can be flexible from 7.25 - 36.25 hours a week. Our shifts are 6am-2pm for an early, and 2pm-10pm for a late. We need to cover these all day every week, but we work with our colleagues around their families and lives, so don’t be afraid to get in touch to see what might be possible. My current favourite dish to make is our Macaroni Cheese - it’s delicious paired with our seasonal salads!"
