In this rewarding role, you'll play a key part in providing high-quality, nutritious meals for our patients, visitors, staff, and volunteers.

Working for our organisation

At Havens Hospices, we care for children, young people and adults with complex or incurable conditions.

Working at Havens Hospices allows you to give the gift of time to patients and families, creating memories. Although you may not be giving direct care to our patients, your contribution will have an immediate effect on our care services.

In return for your expertise and passion, you will receive a competitive salary package, and most of all, by making the most of every day you work at Havens Hospices you’ll be helping us continue ‘Making every day count’ for those who need us most.

At Havens Hospices we are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our employees and patients and expect all colleagues to share this commitment.
