As such, we are looking to develop our daytime food offer further and see real potential for growth in this area.

Work effectively with the floor and bar teams

    Salary is dependent on experience and level you are hired at. We would be interested to hear from all suitable people regardless of salary expectations
    A share of the Tronc. Generally £1-£2 per hour
    Genuine 40 hour working week

    Working in a bright, airy, social open kitchen
    A genuine contribution to the development of the food offering and the opportunity to be creative
