About This Role
This role bridges hospital nutrition services and operational management at a private general hospital in Addis Ababa. As a Food and Beverage Controller, you will coordinate between kitchen staff and nutritionists to ensure patient meals meet both dietary standards and safety regulations. It suits a recent human nutrition graduate who wants hands-on experience in a clinical setting rather than food service or hospitality. Working at Teklehaimanot General Hospital offers exposure to institutional nutrition management within Ethiopia’s healthcare system.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The requirement for a BSc in Human Nutrition and mandatory professional license signals that the hospital prioritizes qualified, regulated practitioners over general hospitality experience. Computer skills and English proficiency suggest the role involves record-keeping, menu planning software, and communication with multidisciplinary teams. This is not a traditional hotel F&B role—it demands clinical nutrition knowledge applied to patient care, not commercial profit.
How to Approach This Application
Emphasize your understanding of therapeutic diets and food safety protocols in your application, since patient health depends on accurate meal preparation. Highlight any internship or university project where you coordinated with kitchen or healthcare teams. Since the employer lists a license as mandatory, confirm you have it in hand before applying and mention it prominently. Show comfort with hospital hierarchy and attention to detail, not just general nutrition interest.
