Arc are launching a new on-campus Canteen, expanding their free food activations and pop-ups and we’re looking for a hands-on Food & Beverage Manager to make it all happen.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone ready to take the next step in their career,  maybe you’ve been running a venue, café, or kitchen and are ready to lead a broader program with purpose? This role is perfect for someone who loves being in the kitchen as much as in the planning room. You’ll design rotating, cost-conscious menus, work directly with cooks and suppliers, and lead a team that delivers affordable, high-quality food experiences every day.

You’ll:

• Launch and manage the new Canteen, pop-ups and free food activations
• Design flexible, student-friendly menus that are creative, affordable and sustainable
• Negotiate with suppliers and contract cooks to get the best outcomes
• Be hands-on, on campus, in service, and part of the action
• Work with our Food Hub to reduce waste and build circular economy solutions

What’s in it for you:

• Mostly daytime hours, very minimal nights and weekends
• Four extra days of leave at the end of the year
• Flexible, people-first working environment
• Be part of a purpose-driven organisation making a genuine impact on student wellbeing

They’re looking for someone who’s as practical as they are passionate, a good human who values inclusion, creativity, and impact over profit.

If you’ve got the creativity of a chef, the focus of a manager, and the heart of a community builder, this is the role for you.
