Job description

Job Description

Location:Murray Vale Shalem Good food matters. So does the person serving it. \n

At UPA, mealtimes are more than another task on the roster. They’re a chance for residents to enjoy good food, have a chat and feel at home.

\n

We’re building a casual pool of Food Services Assistants to support our residential aged-care homes acrossMurray Vale Shalemthroughout Christmas, New Year and beyond.

\n

If you’re looking for extra shifts, flexible work around your other commitments or a possible pathway into permanent employment, this could be a great fit.

WHY THIS CASUAL ROLE IS DIFFERENT \n

These are direct UPA employment opportunities not agency placements. You won’t just be another name filling a shift, you’ll be a UPA employee and part of the team from day one.

\n

You’ll receive a proper UPA induction, ongoing workplace support and the chance to work with familiar residents, teams and homes rather than starting from scratch every shift.

\n

It’s the flexibility of casual work, with real connection and support, and the potential to move into ongoing or permanent employment when opportunities become available.

\n

You’ll receive:

\n

    \n
  • Flexible shifts matched to your availability where possible
    • \n
  • Competitive casual rates, including applicable loadings and penalty rates
    • \n
  • Opportunities for additional work over Christmas, New Year and beyond
    • \n
  • Proper UPA induction, training and workplace support
    • \n
  • The chance to work with familiar residents, employees and homes
    • \n
  • Access to our Employee Assistance Program and wellbeing support
    • \n
  • The opportunity to be considered for permanent roles when suitable vacancies become available
    • \n

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING \n

You’ll help make every meal service safe, smooth and enjoyable by:

\n

    \n
  • Preparing dining rooms and meal-service areas
    • \n
  • Plating, serving and clearing meals
    • \n
  • Assisting with basic food preparation
    • \n
  • Washing dishes and keeping kitchen areas clean
    • \n
  • Following food-safety, hygiene and infection-control requirements
    • \n
  • Supporting cooks and other members of the food-services team
    • \n
  • Taking the time to engage respectfully with our residents
    • \n

YOU’LL BE A GOOD FIT IF YOU: \n

    \n
  • Are reliable, friendly and comfortable working with older people
    • \n
  • Can work safely and efficiently in a busy environment
    • \n
  • Understand the importance of food safety, hygiene and teamwork
    • \n
  • Have good communication skills and a positive attitude
    • \n
  • Hold current Australian working rights
    • \n
  • Can work across a range of days and shift times
    • \n

\n

Experience in hospitality, food service, catering or a commercial kitchen would be helpful. Previous aged-care experience and a Food Safety or Food Handling Certificate are desirable but not essential.

ABOUT UPA \n

UPA of NSW is a values-driven, not-for-profit organisation providing residential aged care, home care and retirement living services throughout NSW.

\n

Our focus is simple: ensuring our residents always have “our people by their side”.

BEFORE YOU START \n

Appointment is subject to satisfactory completion of UPA’s required pre-employment checks, which may include:

\n

    \n
  • National Criminal History Check
    • \n
  • Pre-employment medical assessment
    • \n
  • Evidence of vaccinations required under UPA policy
    • \n
  • Verification of Australian working rights and relevant qualifications
    • \n

\n

As this is casual employment, shifts will depend on operational requirements and your availability.

\n

UPA welcomes applications from people of all ages and genders, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, culturally and linguistically diverse communities, LGBTQIA+ people, veterans, refugees and people with disability.

\n

If you require an adjustment during the recruitment process, please let us know in your application.
