Waiter

at  Farncombe Estate

We’re on the look out for an enthusiastic and friendly junior Waiter (Hospitality Assistant) to join our award-winning team at Dormy House Hotel, one of the Cotswolds’ most well known boutique luxury hotels. You’ll have the opportunity to work within our beautiful restaurant The Back Garden, chef’s tasting table “MO” as well as within our beautiful spa and bar areas. As you do you’ll work alongside and learn from some of the best in the business!
You’ll be part of our team looking after guests’ needs including preparing and serving hot drinks, taking food to the tables, polishing glassware and cutlery, organising our “behind the scenes” areas and keeping them in great condition, and supporting our senior waiters.
Some waiting experience is preferred but not necessary - more important to us is a friendly, hard working and enthusiastic attitude and a willingness to learn.
We offer a 40 hour per week contract (working 8 hour shifts plus 1/2 hour unpaid lunch break), including weekends. We can consider part time options too.
We offer £12 per hour, plus service charge (around £2,500 per year for full time) and uniform and meals on duty will be provided.

We also offer a raft of excellent benefits including:

• 30 days holiday per year (rising to 35 after 5 years)
• A celebration birthday lunch in one of the hotels, on us!
• Access to onsite mental health first aiders, and an employee assistance programme from Hospitality Action
• Free access to wellbeing resources - online exercise classes, mindfulness tools and nutritious recipes
• Hundreds of High Street discounts and a cash back card via Hospitality Rewards
• Estate discounts on dining, stays, wine, spa products and more
• Be rewarded with £1000 to spend how you wish in our employee recognition programme
• Up to £1000 when you successfully refer a friend to work with us
• Premium payments for Christmas and New Year shifts
• An optional, low cost healthcare cash plan
• Free, in-person financial planning advice
• Broad ranging careers in all the usual hotel departments and a few you wouldn’t expect…like our adventure team
• Fully funded apprenticeship opportunities

Due to our rural location, you will require your own transport (WR12 7LJ). If this sounds like your ideal next move, and you would like to discuss this role or any other opportunities on our estate, please do get in touch! We look forward to hearing from you.
We are members of the Hoteliers Charter, and are committed to providing a workplace built on respect, fairness, equality, diversity and opportunity, and to putting wellness and career development at the heart of what we do
