Job description

Do you love building relationships with people from all backgrounds and get a kick out of delivering high-quality services that make a real difference? Do you prefer rolling your sleeves up and making things happen to working quietly behind a screen? Would you enjoy persuading local food suppliers to share their surplus with the community? Do you wake up wanting to make a difference to the people around you?

If so, you could be the perfect person to join a small but mighty team where food is used as a way to build connection, confidence and community on the Priory Green Estate in King’s Cross.
