Description
At London Bridge, we view our Cooks as strong contributors to children's learning that play an important role

in the centre community. This is evident through interactions with children and their families throughout the

day and in their work. The kitchen provides space for children to learn and contributes to the well-being of the

people who share the space. Often, the warm smells coming from the kitchen in the morning provide a comfort

for families dropping off their children for the day and can serve as a first impression for families looking for

care. The Centre Cook is responsible to prepare and deliver quality, nutritious snacks and lunch for up to 120

children. This includes the daily cleaning and sanitizing of the kitchen as well as hand washing all dishes. The

cook ensures food inventory levels by ordering from suppliers while maintaining a pre-approved budget. The

individual working in the position will move equipment weighing up to 50 pounds, remain in a stationary

position during the shift, and move at a pace that meets established timelines.
