  • Your share of tips and service charge – 100% of which is distributed to the team
  • Celebrating success – away days, team socials and more
  • Length of service & performance-based awards
  • Ongoing training & development
  • Clear progression opportunities within a growing independent company

You'll ideally have:

  • Experience in a Supervisor, Team Leader, Duty Manager or Assistant Manager role
  • A passion for hospitality and great customer service
  • Strong leadership skills and the ability to motivate a team
  • Confidence making decisions and managing shifts independently
  • Excellent communication and organisational skills
  • A positive, energetic and hands-on approach
  • Flexibility to work evenings, weekends and busy event periods
  • A desire to develop your career within hospitality management
