St Catherine’s is one of the newest and largest Colleges in the University of Oxford, catering for a wide range of dining, from banquets and formal private dinners to meals for students. All dishes are made fresh from scratch on a daily basis, and the College Kitchen has an enviable reputation for the quality of its food. You can see examples of the types of dishes made at the College on our Instagram page, @st_catzfood.

We now have a fantastic opportunity for a Chef de Partie to join our friendly, professional team and gain experience in a large Kitchen, whilst being supported to build on their culinary skills.
