Opportunity for an experienced Catering Manager to lead the catering services at a prestigious independent school in West London. This is an exciting opportunity to make a real impact by providing high-quality, nutritious meals to students and staff, while managing a dedicated team of catering professionals.

The successful Catering Manager will oversee a main dining hall, sixth form cafe, retail outlets and event spaces that provide 1000 breakfast and lunch covers per day. As the school's catering function is in-house, it is essential that applicants have financial management experience i.e. negotiating with suppliers, setting, hitting and reviewing GP targets, managing ordering, and maximising income.
