Pub Assistant – The Grosvenor Arms, Hindon

The Grosvenor Arms was the first Chickpea pub, and it still sets the tone for everything that's come since: roaring fires in winter, local artist Wilson McTeare's work on the walls, and a kitchen that keeps things simple and does them well.

Handmade pies and fresh fish from Brixham are the backbone of the menu, with nine cosy bedrooms upstairs for anyone who doesn't fancy the drive home.

Join the original Chickpea pub and you'll be working somewhere with history baked into every beam.

We’re looking for Pub Assistants who are eager to learn, help in the kitchen, and support our front-of-house team to make every guest feel like a regular. This is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience, develop skills, and grow within a supportive team.

About Chickpea

We're founder-owned and seven years in. Today, we run ten pubs across the South West, but the idea hasn't changed much since day one. Great pubs are built by great people. 

Our places are a reflection of the teams who work in them. From the kitchen to the bar, we believe exceptional hospitality comes from people who genuinely care about the industry and the guests in front of them. 

We want every guest to feel as though they've been welcomed into someone's home. That means getting the small things right, paying attention to the detail, and looking after people properly. 

It's a simple idea, but it's the thread that runs through everything we do.

Why Chickpea? 

A respectful kitchen is non-negotiable for us. We want people to enjoy coming to work, and that starts with how teams treat each other. 

There are no split shifts. Overtime is paid. Uniform is provided and laundered. If you want to progress, there’s a clear pathway and the support to help you get there. 

We offer flexible working patterns that fit around your life, not the other way round. 

Every penny of service charge is shared across the whole team — chefs, front-of-house and housekeeping included — with complete transparency through your own Grateful account. 

If you work a six-hour shift, you eat from the menu. Away from work, you'll enjoy 50% off food at any of our pubs for you and up to five guests. 

We close on Christmas Day. 

Each year, we bring everyone together for the Annual Chickpea Awards Bash to celebrate the people who make the business what it is. 

On your birthday, you'll receive a £100 voucher to spend at any of our pubs. There are also monthly rewards and giveaways, including the chance to win a night away at one of our places. We recognise long service too. 

Throughout the year, we organise team trips and away days, from visits to local suppliers to trips abroad. 

If you're ambitious and want to develop, we'll build a training programme around you. Whether that's WSET qualifications, apprenticeships, leadership development or broadening your skills across the business, the opportunities are there for those who want them. 

We're committed to helping people build long and rewarding careers in hospitality. 

And because life isn't always straightforward, you'll also have access to confidential 24/7 support for your mental, physical and financial wellbeing. Whenever you need someone to talk to, help is there. 

What You’ll Be Doing

• Working as part of a passionate, energetic team to deliver a welcoming atmosphere for guests.
• Assisting in the kitchen with food prep and washing up.
• Supporting the front-of-house team by serving, clearing, and ensuring guests have a great hospitality experience.
• Maintaining high standards of hygiene, cleanliness, and organisation.
• Helping keep the pub running smoothly, supporting both kitchen and front-of-house teams.
• Learning from experienced team members and developing your skills in all areas of pub operations.

What We’re Looking For

• Positive, reliable, and enthusiastic with a strong work ethic.
• Willingness to learn, take on new tasks, and support the team.
• Team player with a friendly, approachable attitude.
• Eager to gain experience in hospitality and grow within the company.
