Kitchen Team Leaders Wanted – Bellyful Invercargill
We’re on the lookout for a few Kitchen Team Leader Volunteers to help support and guide our legendary Bellyful cooks here in Invercargill. You’ll be working closely with our Cooking Coordinator to help keep things running smoothly (and deliciously!).
Think of yourself as the kitchen conductor - guiding the team, keeping the energy up, and making sure everything is humming along nicely.
What you’ll be doing:
🥄 Supporting and leading a team of amazing volunteers
🥄 Helping create a fun, inclusive, team-focused kitchen vibe
🥄 Keeping an eye on the flow so meals come together like magic - each cook is slightly different
What we’re looking for:
✔️ Comfortable in a kitchen (you don’t need to be a chef – just confident!)
✔️ A natural team player who enjoys bringing people together
✔️ Someone who can keep things ticking along with a calm, positive attitude
The details:
⏰ Around 3–4 hours per cook
📅 Usually Sundays (with some flexibility)
📆 Commitment can be as little as 2–3 times a year
Currently we run around 8 cooks a year, so having a small team of Kitchen Team Leaders means you can share the load and still make a big impact.
Full training is provided around our systems and equipment - we’ll set you up for success!
If this sounds like your kind of recipe, we’d love to hear from you! Apply to volunteer at the link below ⬇️
