Catering assistant in French

Search for "employé de restauration collective", "agent de restauration" or "agent de service restauration" in hospitals and care homes. No diploma is strictly required; the CAP Production et service en restaurants (rapide, collective, cafétéria) is the reference qualification, and food hygiene training is highly valued. Employers are either private catering companies that run canteens under contract, or public bodies: town halls for primary schools, regions and departments for secondary schools, hospitals. In the public sector, the job often corresponds to an "adjoint technique" post, open to contract staff or through a civil service exam. Hours are usually daytime and school canteens follow the school calendar.
