JOB VACANCIES

APPOINTMENT OF HOUSEKEEPER  AND RELIEF COOK


If you may be interested in one of these posts, please read on and download the attachments below. If you have any difficulty doing so, ring us for a set of paper copies.

We employ a small team of housekeepers whose main duties are cleaning a large Edwardian house. We have both day guests and residential guests and, on a busy day, the housekeepers can be responsible for cleaning and preparing all 18 bedrooms. They are  integral members of a small staff team and involved in welcoming our guests and helping provide a high standard of Christian hospitality.
One of our housekeepers is leaving for her gap year and we are seeking a new member of staff to replace her. We are looking for someone who could work some evening and weekend shifts. We are  willing to consider part time appointments to cover all these hours and will cater for individual domestic requirements if we can.
We are also looking for a relief cook to cover for our cook’s weekend off  and occasionally to cover for holidays as well. . This could be a separate post of one weekend a month or  be combined with housekeeping duties. We are therefore open to suggestions about how best to fill these posts. Shepherds Dene is closed for building work this month and we hope to appoint someone to start at the beginning of February.
You will find more about work on the websitew and if you are not sure about putting in an application, you are welcome to ring Sue Degnan or george hepburn  on 01434 682 212. Completed application forms ( no cvs please) must arrive at Shepherds Dene by 12 noon on 21st January and interviews will be held on Friday  28th. We will do our best to tell you by the end of Monday  24th if you have been shortlisted and an email address would be really helpful for this purpose.
