Front of House Manager in Sevenoaks
on 21 September 2023
Good but not a lot of room for career building progression

Good Hospo Gig
Can be busy and hard work but overall good working environment. Lots of really extensive training and opportunities for progression. No late nights, free meals on shift and good tips. App is handy for payslips/rotas. People are nice, overall difficult to find a better hospitality gig.
