Responsibilities



  • Set up, deliver and clear down a range of catering, events and food and beverage services in line with departmental standard operating procedures to meet customer requirements.

  • Lead and guide Catering & Events Assistants in service delivery; ensure customer needs are met and service quality aligns with SOPs.

  • Manage a range of event types including conferences, meetings, bars, drinks receptions, lunches, dinners, weddings, outside catering, and delivered catering.

  • Individually or as part of a team, prioritise and carry out routine tasks to ensure smooth service for allocated events: setting rooms/venues, serving beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic), health and safety compliance, food service and delivery, closing procedures, stock security post-event, and driving University vehicles as required.

  • Keep routine records (stock levels of items, soiled linen, and periodic counts of cutlery, crockery and glassware).

  • Support pre-set induction programmes and development plans through on-the-job buddying and training to ensure consistency in service delivery per SOPs.

  • Under formal in-house training: set up and basic operation of standard in-house AV equipment; ensure compliance with food hygiene and alcohol service legislation; conduct annual review meetings with staff and pass development needs to the line manager.



Qualifications



  • Previous experience supervising people and teams to deliver successful events in hospitality, catering or events environments.

  • A strong team player who can work closely with supervisors and teammates to exceed customer expectations.

  • Outstanding organisational skills and the ability to prioritise work and keep others on track.

  • Excellent attention to detail and ability to communicate with a wide range of customers.

  • Ability to coach others to meet SOPs, operational health and safety requirements and core ACE values.

  • Full driving license valid for driving on UK roads as this role requires the post holder to drive University vehicles.
