What Is A Commercial Catering Engineer?

In short, a commercial catering engineer is responsible for installing and carrying out maintenance repairs on kitchen equipment. Engineers may manage machines, including fryers, dishwashers, grills, commercial ovens, and microwaves. You’ll frequently visit different sites as an employee, which could be restaurants, hotels, care homes, and schools.

You’ll thrive in your career as a general commercial catering engineer, maintaining and repairing all kitchen machinery, or you can specialise in handling more technical equipment.

While you’ll find your career heavily rewarding, commercial catering engineers can be required to work shifts. You may also face long and unsociable hours completing reactive maintenance, so bear in mind that you may need a flexible timetable if you’re applying.

Some of our roles at COMCAT Recruitment are more demanding than others, so be sure to check the job description to see what suits your needs best.
