Location: Christchurch
Job Description:

Fairmile Grange Nursing Home, part of the Allegra Care family, invites an energetic, creative and caring qualified Chef to join our close‑knit team at our beautiful home in Christchurch. Chef Bank contract: shifts as available and flexibility to work when you want. If things go well, there may be a chance to increase your hours and grow a career.

What you’ll be doing

  • Creating fresh, nutritious and delicious meals, tailored to residents’ tastes and dietary needs
  • Working closely with residents, managers and the care team to design meals that feel personal and homely
  • Bringing ideas, passion and imagination to a domestic‑style kitchen environment
  • Delivering a hospitality experience you can be proud of without the late nights or intense pressure of mainstream catering

What we’re looking for

  • A qualified, experienced Chef who cares about quality and presentation
  • Someone who enjoys working in a warm, friendly environment
  • A team player with a positive, can‑do attitude
  • An understanding of special diets and nutritional needs

What we offer

  • Up to £16.15 per hour
  • A flexible schedule – our home is open seven days a week, but the hours are far more family‑friendly than traditional hospitality
  • The chance to genuinely impact lives every day
  • Support, training and opportunities to grow your career as part of a developing and ambitious care group
