About The Groucho Club

Founded in 1985, The Groucho Club is one of London’s most renowned private members’ clubs, bringing together individuals from the creative industries including film, media, arts, publishing, and music.

Private Events Waiter

The ideal candidate combines a strong work ethic with natural hospitality, understanding that every detail contributes to the atmosphere and success of our events.

• Clearing, resetting, and maintaining tables and spaces efficiently without disrupting the atmosphere.
