Full Job Description
The Role Outline: Your Shift at a Glance As our Kitchen Porter, you are the absolute backbone of the kitchen. You will keep the operation moving by managing the heavy lifting, dominating the dish pit, checking in deliveries, and ensuring the brigade has exactly what they need to survive a busy shift.
Why Village? We do hospitality differently. No ego, no drama. We back our teams to take ownership and grow their careers. We show up to make a genuine difference, caring deeply about our impact on guests, the community, and each other.
Your Shift: What You'll Actually Be Doing We trust you to handle:
The Engine Room: Dominating the dish pit. You will work speedily to clean all equipment and crockery, ensuring the kitchen never grinds to a halt because a chef is waiting for a pan.
The Standards: Managing the mess. You will safely handle cleaning chemicals in line with COSHH regulations, control food waste correctly, and maintain the highest levels of hygiene.
The Backbone: Supporting the brigade. You will fetch and carry food, safely store equipment, and act as the crucial link that keeps the service flowing.
The Deliveries: Acting as the gatekeeper. You will check in deliveries according to standard operating procedures, validating invoices to ensure we get exactly what we paid for.
How We Succeed Together We do not micromanage. We believe in Ownership & Integrity, giving you the autonomy to make decisions on the fly and be a vital, respected part of the brigade.
Selling Our Benefits
Health: Complimentary Health & Wellness Membership for you and a friend (worth £1,500), mental health days, and an Employee Assistance Programme.
Stays & Food: Discounted stays from £35, 50% off at the Pub & Grill, and 30% off Starbucks.
Extras: Salary drawdown via Wagestream, High Street discounts, Electric car scheme, and your birthday off guaranteed.
Think You've Got the Right Energy? If you have the grit to handle a fast-paced kitchen, and want to be the most valued person in the brigade, hit apply and let's see if our energies align.
About Company: "Aberdeen, affectionately known as the Granite City, strikes the perfect balance between twenty-first century city, and rugged, historic port town. It earned its nickname from the stone used in the majority of the city's architecture, giving Aberdeen its famous silver hue. The city itself has plenty to offer, from shopping at Union Square to the energetic nightlife of Belmont Street. A short drive from our hotel in Aberdeen is Dunnottar Castle, a stunning 14th century ruin, plucked straight out of a medieval storybook - perfect for a family weekend"
