At Red Hotels, we're passionate about creating exceptional experiences for our guests and an exceptional workplace for our people. You'll be part of a talented and supportive team, working across Scarlet and Bedruthan, where individuality is celebrated, development is encouraged and a genuine passion for hospitality is shared. It's an opportunity to build your wine career while working in two of Cornwall's most distinctive coastal hotels.

  • Creating memorable guest experiences through thoughtful recommendations and pairings.
  • Building genuine relationships with guests and sharing your passion for wine.

  • Organised, self-motivated and professional.
  • A collaborative team player who thrives in a guest-focused environment.
