Greener Kirkcaldy - Community Food Sessional Worker

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Community Food Team to support our busy weekly
programmes and activities.
The team are based at Greener Kirkcaldy, 8 East Fergus Place, Kirkcaldy. Our Lang Spoon
Training Kitchen is where people come to take part in cookery courses and workshops. The
Lang Toun Larder is our community food pantry, which collects and redistributes surplus
food from businesses, keeping good food in circulation and reducing food waste.
Project Manager Community Food Team.
We are looking for someone who has experience of working in a professional or a
community food setting. You will have experience of working with people and volunteers
from all backgrounds so they receive a valuable and enjoyable experience.
We are looking for someone who is flexible, has a positive approach, a willingness to get
stuck in, and a passion for connecting people with their food. You will also have excellent
communication skills, and the flexibility to work with our team to run both cooking sessions
and our other community food support activities. Following a period of shadowing and
training, we would expect that the post-holder would lead activity sessions for the
Community Food Team, supported by Kitchen Assistants or volunteers as appropriate. Our
busiest days are Tuesdays to Fridays with regular evening events and occasional Saturday
events too.
In addition, there will be the opportunity for the post-holder to work additional hours by
supporting other Greener Kirkcaldy teams, such as supporting volunteers within food
growing sessions run by our Outdoor Project Team, should this be of interest.
Greener Kirkcaldy is a community-led charity working locally to bring people together, take
positive action on the climate emergency and support people experiencing fuel poverty and
food insecurity.
