Oxygen House is looking for a Kitchen Porter to join our forward-thinking kitchen team. This is a hands-on role where you’ll be a key part of keeping our kitchen running smoothly; from organising supplies to maintaining a clean environment.
We’re not your average kitchen. At Oxygen House, we’re building planet-positive food experiences that nourish people and the planet. If you care about sustainability and want to be part of something meaningful, we’d love to hear from you.

The Kitchen Porter is expected to work every Monday to Friday, 10am-6:30pm. In weeks when the Sunday is worked, an alternative day off will be scheduled flexibly in the week, based on business needs.

Someone who is physically fit and comfortable with manual handling
Someone with a strong focus on cleanliness and hygiene in everything they do
A team player who takes pride in doing a great job
Organised, reliable, and proactive
Willing to learn and support others
