Position Overview & Specifications
Forming part of our Conference & Events team and working closely with the Event Managers to deliver an amazing memorable experience to our guests, you will primarily be responsible for preparing meeting rooms, tea & coffee service, lunches & dinners within the Events business (wedding, conferences and banquets), but shifts in the Lounge, Bar and Restaurant will also be made available to you.
Hours are fully flexible, so suitable for students or those looking for part time work around other responsibilities. The shifts available are posted on an app weekly and you can choose which ones suit you and as many as you wish or fit into your other commitments– shifts will include day- time, evening and involve both weekday and weekend work.
Your contract will be on a zero-hour basis with a great benefits package on top, including a share of the service charge which typically adds another 50p per hour to your pay, hotel recognition scheme and incentive programme (including cinema tickets, free dinner & afternoon tea, cash rewards), discounted use of hotel facilities, workplace pension & life assurance, employee assistance programme, and a high street, local attraction & retail perks and discount programme.
We are looking for candidates with a good all-round knowledge of service and who are passionate about working with people. You will need to enjoy communicating with people, have a great eye for detail, fantastic “customer service” skills and great organisational skills. Ideal applicants will have previous experience within a Hospitality environment, but not essential as full training will be given.
Don’t let the exciting opportunity to join our #exceptionalteam in the role of Waiter, Waitress or Bar-tender pass you by. We’re progressive, independent, and free-spirited - it’s just the fabric of the building that’s historic, not our approach to business!
