About Seneca Hill

Founded in 1988, Seneca Hill Private School is a caring, inclusive private school where every student is known, supported, and inspired. Our enriched, IB-inspired program balances strong academics with real-world learning, character, leadership, and well-being. Nutritious food is part of that commitment: students learn and thrive when they feel healthy, energized, and cared for.

The Opportunity

This is a hands-on role for someone who combines creativity with disciplined food-safety practices and genuinely enjoys being part of a school community. The School Chef leads the day-to-day kitchen operation, from menu planning and ordering through preparation, service, sanitation, and recordkeeping.

What You Will Do

Plan, prepare, cook, portion, and serve a daily morning snack, lunch, and afternoon snack for participating students.
Develop rotating menus that are balanced, child-friendly, appealing, budget-conscious, and informed by Canada's Food Guide, seasonality, and student feedback.
Safely accommodate food allergies and dietary restrictions through careful labelling, separation, recordkeeping, and cross-contact controls.
Help in the ordering and receiving food and supplies; maintain accurate inventory; rotate stock; monitor quality; and reduce avoidable food waste.
Maintain an inspection-ready kitchen in accordance with Toronto Public Health requirements, Ontario food-safety standards, and school procedures, including temperature logs, safe storage, dating, sanitation, and cleaning schedules.
Keep kitchen equipment in safe working order and promptly report maintenance or supply needs to Administration.
Build positive, respectful relationships with students and encourage age-appropriate portions, curiosity, and healthy eating habits without pressure.
Support school celebrations and events, and share occasional menu or meal updates for family communications in accordance with school privacy practices.
Complete daily dishwashing, sanitation, and kitchen closing procedures so the space is clean, organized, and ready for the next day.

What You Bring

Experience: At least two years of professional cooking, catering, or food-service experience; school, childcare, camp, or institutional experience is an asset.
Food safety: A current Food Handler Certificate recognized in Ontario and strong knowledge of allergen management and cross-contact prevention.
Organization: The ability to work independently, sequence competing tasks, manage inventory, and consistently meet fixed service times.
Judgment: A calm, dependable, and safety-focused approach, with close attention to detail and accurate records.
Community mindset: Warm, respectful communication and genuine comfort working around children, staff, and families.
Screening: The ability to provide satisfactory professional references and a clear Vulnerable Sector Check before starting.
Physical requirements: The ability to perform the role's essential duties, with reasonable accommodation where required, including prolonged standing, frequent bending and reaching, frequent lifting of 10-15 kg (22-33 lb), and occasional lifting of up to 25 kg (55 lb).

Additional Assets

Culinary diploma, certificate, apprenticeship, or equivalent practical training.
Current CPR and First Aid certification.
Experience with menu costing, purchasing, nutrition-focused food service, baking, or culturally diverse menu development.

Why Join Seneca Hill

A predictable weekday, school-day schedule (8am-4pm)
Meaningful ownership of a food program that directly supports student well-being and learning.
Room to bring creativity to menus while working within clear safety, nutrition, and budget expectations.
A welcoming school community that values initiative, reliability, and care.

How to Apply

Please submit a resume and brief cover note describing your relevant cooking experience, your approach to food safety and allergies, and why a school-based role appeals to you. A sample menu or small portfolio of meals is welcome but not required. We thank all applicants; only candidates selected for an interview will be contacted.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: $22.00-$26.00 per hour

Ability to commute/relocate:

North York, ON: reliably commute or plan to relocate before starting work (required)
