Benefits

  • 28 days' annual leave, with additional holiday awarded for loyalty.
  • Free meals and drinks while on shift.
  • Paid overtime for salaried team members.
  • Exclusive discounts on travel, shopping, and leisure experiences.
  • 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme, including GP support.
  • Comprehensive training, including Food Safety, Health & Safety, and management development programmes.
  • Excellent opportunities for career progression within a growing hospitality business.
