We operate at 28 centres across the UK, France and Spain, giving more than 400,000 young guests an experience to remember each year - that means a lot of hungry mouths to feed!
We're not necessarily looking for people with masses of experience for this role but welcome applications from people who can demonstrate a willingness to learn and an interest in starting their careers as a PGL Apprentice. Many of our Head Chefs joined us in this role, progressing to their present roles as a result of our Apprenticeship programme and development opportunities.
This role offers the perfect chance if you're interested in starting a career in catering but have no previous experience as we provide all the necessary training. You will work under the direction of your Chef or Head Chef, preparing and serving food to our guests as well as cleaning the dining and food preparation facilities after use. We attempt to use as many fresh ingredients in our dishes as possible and have a healthy eating charter to compliment the active nature of our holidays.
Our training opportunities supports staff with less relevant experience or qualifications to break the cycle of no experience; no job. Whilst working for PGL, you'll have access to fantastic training opportunities and qualifications that look great on your CV!
Joining the PGL team, you'll receive a competitive wage, meals and free uniform; accommodation is provided, plus you'll have the chance to live and work in a unique environment at one of our centres in the UK, France or Spain.
