Catering Supervisor - Kitchen

Re-purposed after nearly 100 years as a school for choirboys, the remarkable YHA St Paul's building boasts the ultimate location for exploring one of London's most fascinating tourist attractions - it's literally seconds from St Paul’s cathedral.

Steeped in history, this hostel includes old-school choirboy graffiti (in a wood-panelled classroom no less), atmospheric spiral staircases and an elaborate exterior. And of course, there's nothing quite like waking up to those cathedral bells. The hostel’s central location is also great for exploring London on foot, with many of London's famous attractions close by.

Here at St Paul's YHA, we are looking for a talented individual to join our team as Catering Supervisor for our busy kitchen. This key position will work closely with the Hostel Management Team to ensure all areas of the hostel maintain the high standards our guests expect from a stay at YHA.

If you're looking for an exciting challenge outside the standard nine-to-five, then working for YHA could be the job for you.
