A Stage Unlike Any Other

In 1863, a group of artists, writers, and free thinkers gathered with a shared conviction: that the finest conversation, the boldest ideas, and the warmest hospitality belonged together under one roof. Charles Dickens dined here. Whistler argued here. Rodin was inspired here.

The Arts Club was born not as a venue, but as a living expression of creative life — and it has never stopped.

 At the heart of that life today are the people and spaces that bring our club to life every day. This is more than an operation — it is an environment where members connect, create, and return time and time again because something about it feels truly special.

It takes an exceptional person to be part of that.

That person might be you.

We are looking for an experienced, passionate, and service-driven Chef de Rang to join our restaurant team. This is an exciting opportunity for a hospitality professional who takes pride in delivering exceptional guest experiences and enjoys working in a high-quality dining environment.

As Chef de Rang, you will be responsible for running your own section, providing attentive and knowledgeable service, and ensuring every guest enjoys a memorable dining experience. You'll work closely with the kitchen, bar, and management teams while supporting and mentoring junior team members.

• Deliver exceptional food and beverage service throughout lunch, dinner, and brunch.
• Run your own section with confidence and attention to detail.
• Provide expert menu recommendations, including wines and beverages, while accommodating dietary requirements and allergies.
• Ensure guests receive friendly, professional, and personalised service from arrival to departure.
• Accurately take orders and process payments using the POS system.
• Liaise with the kitchen and bar to ensure seamless service and timely delivery of food and drinks.
• Maintain high standards of cleanliness, presentation, and table set-up.
• Support, guide, and develop Commis Waiters and Junior Chef de Rang.
• Upsell menu items and promote the restaurant's offerings where appropriate.
• Work collaboratively with colleagues to ensure smooth daily operations.

• Previous experience as a Chef de Rang or experienced Waiter/Waitress in a quality restaurant, hotel, or private members' club.
• Excellent food, wine, and beverage knowledge.
• Passion for delivering outstanding customer service.
• Strong communication and organisational skills.
• A positive, professional, and team-oriented attitude.
• Ability to remain calm and organised in a fast-paced environment.
• High standards of personal presentation and attention to detail.
• Flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and public holidays as required.
