Home » Articles & News » Production Chef Apprenticeship (Submariner) With The Royal Navy: #CreateYourFuture Opportunity
Not only will you become part of the Silent Service, the highly specialised team at the forefront of our nation’s defence, you’ll also embark on a catering career like no other, where you’ll cook for the boat’s crew as well as deliver high end front of house service to visiting VIPs and royalty when the submarine is in port.
At this job you will:
- Learn all the ins and outs of running a highly efficient commercial kitchen, including responsibility for ordering, receiving, and accounting for provisions to sustain the menus you’ll write, as well as learning how to offer the highest level of premium front of house experience and the behind the scenes organisation that enables it
- Be part of the team whose role is about a lot more than just food. Your crewmates, at all levels, look forward to mealtimes, so you’ll be responsible for maintaining their high morale and wellbeing
- Learn additional, crucial skills: you’ll become a highly trained, efficient submariner capable of firefighting, delivering first aid and, if it calls for it, driving the boat itself
Things to consider:
- Different styles of catering to match the diverse requirements of the job
- Food hygiene
- Health and safety
- Catering accountancy
- Stock control
Desired skills
The Royal Navy will give you skills. We’ll develop your abilities, train you to be the best, show you how to achieve your goals and give you recognised qualifications.
Personal qualities
- A keen interest in high standards of food and hospitality
- A cool head for the pressures of a busy kitchen
- A problem-solver, with a commonsense approach, who can work well as part of a team
- A real sense of adventure, with a high level of physical and mental fitness
To be a successful Royal Navy Caterer, you’ll need commitment, enthusiasm and the desire to consistently produce great food. Conditions are hot, busy, and pressured, so you need to be well organised and a real team player.
Desired qualifications
No qualifications required – just that you pass a Recruit Test and are in a good state of health and fitness.
