What we need in a nutshell 

We’re looking for a kitchen porter who can deliver delight to our holiday resort guests. You will be helping the kitchen team to run a safe, efficient and profitable food and beverage operation. 

Who are we?

Sandy Balls Holiday Village is a world away from your day to day, with more trees than you can… well, shake a stick at. We have resident alpacas, a bush-craft school and forest laser tag, along with the usual holiday heroes of cycling and swimming. But New Forest holidays are also about tranquillity, which is why our Retreat spa and cosy, cottage-style lodges and caravans are here to help our guests unwind.

What you’ll be doing 

You will be working in the kitchen ensuring guests receive a memorable experience through excellent service and food quality.  

  • Ensuring the food preparation areas, equipment and floors are clean and hygienic.  
  • Washing utensils and dishes and making sure they are stored appropriately. 
  • Accepting deliveries, ensuring ingredients are stored correctly and date rotated.  
  • Washing, peeling, chopping, cutting and cooking foodstuffs and helping to prepare other items on the menu. 
  • Work alongside front of house and kitchen team to maximise food margins and minimise wastage 
  • Ensuring compliance with Health and Safety, Food Hygiene and COSHH regulations   

Skills, experience and qualities you’ll need 

If you can demonstrate the following, we’d love to hear from you: 

  • Excellence in customer service with evidence of previous successes 
  • Good written and verbal communication, organisational and leadership skills 
  • A passion for food and hospitality 
  • Resilience, energy, enthusiasm and a positive attitude 

It’s the icing on the cake if you have a Level 3 Hygiene certificate and experience in the holiday sector, but don’t worry if you haven’t, we provide plenty of training. 

It’s about your values too. We have a can-do, fun-loving, people-centred ethos here at Away Resorts, which is captured by our holiday heroes’ mantra of Attentive Amazing Lovers - have a read about it on our website and decide if it describes you.

  • Up to 50% Discounts on Away Resorts holidays – because you deserve amazing getaways too.
