This is a truly exciting opportunity for a passionate and engaging Nutritionist to help shape a brand-new role across the Caterham Family of Schools.

As part of our continued commitment to pupil wellbeing, food education and outstanding catering, Lodestone House is looking to appoint a Dedicated Nutritionist to work across Caterham School, Caterham Prep School, The Hawthorns School and Copthorne Prep School.

This role will support pupils from nursery through to sixth form, helping them understand the value of good nutrition, make informed food choices and see the link between food, wellbeing, concentration, energy and performance.

This is much more than a menu advisory role. We are looking for someone who can bring nutrition to life across the schools through engaging workshops, pupil sessions, sports nutrition support, Food Council involvement, parent and staff engagement, and close collaboration with our catering and school teams.

The successful candidate will work alongside the Group Contract Director, Chef Managers, catering teams, school leaders, sports departments and pastoral teams to support a consistent, creative and pupil-focused approach to nutrition across the Caterham Family of Schools.

The Role

As Dedicated Nutritionist, you will:

• Support the development of nutritionally balanced menus across nursery, prep, senior and sixth form age groups.
• Deliver engaging and age-appropriate nutrition workshops, assemblies and pupil sessions.

• Help pupils understand healthy eating, hydration, balanced diets, energy, concentration and performance.

• Work with sports teams and coaches to support pupils with nutrition for training, recovery and performance.

• Support Food Council meetings and help turn pupil feedback into practical food and menu improvements.

• Work closely with the Group Executive Chef on innovation, including alternative proteins, plant-based dishes, café offers, grab-and-go options and sports-focused food choices.

• Create clear, practical and engaging nutrition resources for pupils, parents and staff.

• Support themed events such as Healthy Eating Week, hydration campaigns, food education days and pupil workshops.

• Help promote a positive food culture across all four schools, encouraging pupils to try new foods and make confident choices.
• Provide support and guidance around special diets, allergens and medical diet requirements, working within agreed company and school processes.

About You

We are looking for someone who is warm, confident and passionate about nutrition, wellbeing and young people’s development.

You may already have experience working in schools, education, sports nutrition, public health, food education or child nutrition. Experience with children or young people would be beneficial, but it is not essential. For us, just as important is your ability to communicate in a practical, inspiring and approachable way.

You will be someone who enjoys working with people, can build strong relationships quickly and is excited by the opportunity to create something new.

You will ideally have:

• A relevant qualification in nutrition, food science, dietetics, public health nutrition or a related subject.
• A strong understanding of balanced diets, child nutrition, hydration and sports nutrition.
• The confidence to deliver workshops, presentations and pupil-facing activities.
• The ability to explain nutrition in a simple, positive and age-appropriate way.
• A creative approach to food education and pupil engagement.
• Strong communication skills with pupils, parents, staff and school stakeholders.
• A collaborative approach and the ability to work closely with chefs and catering teams.
• A practical, solutions-focused mindset.
• An understanding of allergens, special diets and school catering environments would be an advantage.

Why This Role?

This is a rare opportunity to shape a dedicated nutrition role across a leading family of independent schools.

You will have the chance to make a visible difference to pupils at every stage of their education, from early years through to sixth form. You will support food education, wellbeing, performance and confidence, while working with talented catering and school teams who are committed to delivering an excellent pupil experience.

The Caterham Family of Schools has a strong focus on wellbeing, innovation, opportunity and the care of each child. This role will be central to supporting that ethos through food, nutrition and education.

Key Outcomes of the Role

• Improved pupil understanding of healthy and balanced food choices.
•  Greater engagement with school meals, cafés and food education.
•  Stronger support for sports nutrition and active pupils.
•  Clearer links between food, wellbeing, learning and performance.
•  Practical menu support across all age groups.
•  Positive parent, pupil and school stakeholder engagement.
•  A consistent and exciting nutrition offer across the Caterham Family of Schools.
