Restaurant jobs in Loftus

Company Description

We're the number 1 rated steakhouse restaurant in Robin Hoods' Bay - a 30-seat, casual, full-service dining spot, right on the beachfront, in beautiful Robin Hoods Bay. We serve great quality local food, including Brunch, Lunch, and Evening meals, with a focus on Chargrilled Steaks.

We're fully licensed, with a great coffee offering, and a small but welcoming team. The owners work in the business right alongside the team - think cosy neighbourhood restaurant - the best type of place to work!

Job Description

We're currently recruiting for a shift leader/ shift supervisor to join our lively team, on a flexible full-time basis, of around 25-45 hours a week. You'll need to have a proven track record as a great supervisor, able to lead a small restaurant team on shifts that you are in charge.

We'll show you our processes and you'll work closely with the owner and management team to help run our popular, friendly and casual steakhouse restaurant.

Of massive importance to us is your ability to make guests feel welcome and comfortable, have great conversations, and to offer real guest-focused service. If you've got a natural, warm personality, you'll fit in perfectly.

We will offer full training to ensure you're well equipped and well supported, but this role is for someone with experience in a supervisory capacity, or an experienced member of waiting team who is ready to progress.

As a Front of House Shift Supervisor - your duties will include managing bookings, welcoming guests, taking orders at the table, running food, and helping with daily cleaning tasks around the business, plus dealing with guest queries.

You'll be looking after a small team during each shift, communicating with the kitchen team, looking after daily cleaning checklists and due diligence paperwork, counting cash and stock, and opening and closing of the business.

We'll guarantee you'll earn at least £16.00 per hour when including tips, and top up your wage if your tips don't earn you this, but you're likely to earn significantly more - with an average of £17-18 per hour (base pay of £14p/h, plus a tip guarantee scheme)

You'll also get 28 days' paid holiday (based on 37.5 hours a week), pension contributions, half price food and drink on days you work, and 20% off when dining with friends and family.

We're a top-rated bistro with a real focus on guest experience, so please apply if you know you're a fantastic shift leader, shift supervisor, manager or similar, or are an exceptional member of waiting team and looking to make a next step up. Be bright, great with guests, and fun!

One thing to note - we're at the bottom of the hill into Robin Hoods Bay - There's street parking at the top, and then it's a 5 minute stroll down to us. We know it's a walk, but you can't beat the views!

If you think this job could be for you, or think you may qualify and like the sound of the role, please apply! Please note, we're only looking for those living within about a 30 minute commute, and there is no accommodation provided. Sorry, but if you're in Middlesborough, that's too far and your application will be rejected.
