People and Culture Coordinator / Executive

People & Culture Executive / Coordinator

A Stage Unlike Any Other

In 1863, a group of artists, writers, and free thinkers
gathered with a shared conviction: that the finest conversation, the boldest
ideas, and the warmest hospitality belonged together under one roof. Charles
Dickens dined here. Whistler argued here. Rodin was inspired here.

The Arts Club was born not as a venue, but as a living
expression of creative life — and it has never stopped.

At the heart of that life today are the people and spaces
that bring our club to life every day. This is more than an operation — it is
an environment where members connect, create, and return time and time again
because something about it feels truly special.



It takes an exceptional person to be part of that.

That person might be you.

Be part of creating an exceptional employee
experience.

People are at the heart of everything we do, and we're
looking for an enthusiastic, people-focused People & Culture Executive /
Coordinator to join our team.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is
looking to develop their career within luxury hospitality. Working closely with
our People & Culture team and managers across the business, you'll play an
