Cover Nursery Cook – Flexible, across 3 nurseries

We're looking for a flexible Cover Nursery Cook to keep our kitchens running when our nursery cooks are on holiday or off sick. You'll work across all three Nest nurseries: Royal Wharf and Marco Polo in the Royal Docks (E16), and Embassy Gardens in Nine Elms (SW11). Expect around 15 weeks' work a year, mostly holiday cover booked well in advance, with some shorter-notice sickness cover.

What you'll do:

  • Cook fresh breakfasts, lunches, teas and snacks from our seasonal menu, which changes each term and rotates on a four-week cycle
  • Cater safely for allergies and dietary needs in our nut‑free kitchens
  • Keep the kitchen clean, organised and compliant with food safety standards, including temperature and cleaning records
  • Manage stock and deliveries while you're covering
  • Work closely with the nursery team, and occasionally help children with simple baking sessions

What we offer:

  • Flexible work you can plan around, with holiday cover booked well ahead
  • Paid training, including food hygiene and allergen awareness
  • Holiday pay on the hours you work, and a company pension when you're eligible
