Are you an experienced Cook looking for a new challenge? Join us as our new Cook at Tyne Grange care home in Newcastle upon Tyne.

In this role, you’ll cook delicious, healthy and nutritious meals for the people we support in our care home.

Meal times are an important part of our daily routine, even more so for those living in care homes.

About Exemplar Health Care

Tyne Grange is part of Exemplar Health Care, a leading provider of nursing care for adults living with complex and high acuity needs.

As well as stable and secure employment opportunities, we offer great benefits and perks, and plenty of opportunities to learn, develop and progress.

About The Role

Our Cooks make delicious and nourishing meals for people with a range of dietary requirements.

No two days will ever be the same, but your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

  • preparing, cooking and serving food
  • understanding people’s needs, likes and choices to develop suitable menus
  • interacting with the people we support to get feedback on meals
  • complying with food hygiene standards
  • completing relevant checks and maintaining records
  • being a great team player, working as part of the wider Catering Team.

You’ll put people at the heart of everything you do. We can guarantee that whatever you bring to the role, you’ll see great rewards.

If you haven’t worked in the care sector before, we’ll help you feel right at home from the start with our induction, buddy, and ongoing training programmes.
