RESTAURANT HOST – JOIN KRICKET TODAY! 

Recognised as one of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2025, Kricket is a collection of modern Indian restaurants that combine British ingredients with the flavours and aromas of India. Having started life in a 20-seater shipping container at Pop Brixton, Kricket now operates permanent locations in Brixton, Canary Wharf and Soho alongside our award-winning bar concept, SOMA. The group is looking to grow further in London and internationally.

Our newest location, in the heart of Shoreditch, is a 120-cover restaurant and bar, housed in a restored Victorian dispensary. It’s an evolution of the Kricket brand, featuring our first all-day café and bar concept alongside our signature restaurant experience. 

ABOUT THE ROLE

• Loyalty rewards, including a 5-year anniversary dinner with the founders, a once-in-a-lifetime trip to India, and a 5-week paid sabbatical.
• Enhanced maternity/paternity pay & Baby First Aid classes for new parents.
• Free mortgage advice.

Progress Yourself

• Personal development plans.
• Regular training sessions (both internal and external).
