Production chefs work as part of a team in often challenging kitchen environments, working to strict time frames in settings such as schools, hospitals, the Armed Forces, care homes and high street casual dining or pub kitchens.
Production chefs are likely to work with centrally developed standardised recipes and menus, producing food often in high volumes. They apply highly methodical organisational skills, energy, accuracy, attention to detail and are mindful of the importance of sustainability and protecting the environment.
For this role adherence to company and legislative health and hygiene procedures is a must.
The knowledge, skills and behaviours for this role will be developed over the duration of the apprenticeship.
Maths and English will be embedded within the apprenticeship.
