More information
Catering recruitment agencies in Devon, Dartmouth and Exeter work with local food serving establishments to fill industry vacancies within this coast-side county. The catering industry is a diverse field of work and agencies will be expected to fill job roles ranging from pub manager to silver service staff.
Employment opportunities
Devon catering jobs can vary but the overall responsibility of industry personnel is to create, sell or deliver food within businesses such as bars, restaurants and cafes. Catering staff will typically be employed in front of house, kitchen or management positions, although there are opportunities for candidates to enter the field in a sales or food science discipline.
Due to it's proximity to the coast, tourism has a large influence on the Devon catering industry and this means that recruitment agencies will often be required to supply staff for seasonal restaurant and hotels jobs. Plymouth, Dartmouth and Torquay are some of the prominent seaside locations in the county and catering candidates here are likely be in high demand during seasonal peaks; predominantly the summer months.
The city of Exeter tends to offer the best year-round opportunities for candidates.
Catering salaries
The average catering salary in this area of the South West is around £19K, however the summer spike in part time and temporary jobs means that annual earnings are often less than this. Management positions in restaurants and hospitality businesses will usually earn the top average salaries of £30,000 - £40,000+, however these can rise further depending on the size of the organisation. Personnel such as waitresses / waiters, receptionists and bar staff are often the lowest paid, but this can be improved through tips and overtime.
Entry requirements
Necessary qualifications will depend on the position, however most candidates will be able to begin an entry-role with minimal credentials. Chefs and similar kitchen staff will need specific training, while managers may decide to undertake catering management courses. The majority of staff will have to complete relevant food safety training, however this can often be taken during employment.
