Waiter/Waitress


Description

We are currently looking for an enthusiastic Waiter / Waitress to join the dynamic Food and Beverage team within a luxury hotel that offers fantastic growth and development opportunities. We have full-time, part-time and casual roles including weekends only available.


The Rubens at the Palace Hotel, part of the Red Carnation Hotel Collection, is a stunning five star property located in the heart of London’s Victoria and within walking distance of Buckingham Palace. This wonderful hotel has been fully refurbished and features 161 individually designed bedrooms and suites, as well as a range of Food and Beverage outlets including The English Grill Restaurant, The Curry Room Restaurant, The New York Bar, The Palace Lounge and Champagne Bar, as well as 9 well equipped function rooms.


The key responsibilities of the Waiter / Waitress role will include:


  • Ensuring prompt and professional guest service
  • Setting up tables to the correct standards
  • Ensuring that the mise en place is sufficient and to the required standard
  • Being familiar with the a la carte menu, tasting menu, room service items
  • To ensure that all food service areas are maintained to an acceptable level of cleanliness and hygiene, adhering to the cleaning schedules on a daily basis

 

The ideal candidate for the Waiter / Waitress position should:

 

  • Previous experience within a similar role is a plus
  • Have excellent communication skills
  • Have strong attention to detail
  • Have a friendly, bubbly and flexible attitude
  • Have the ability to handle busy situations and manage your workload effectively

 

Benefits of the Waiter / Waitress position include:


  • A competitive salary
  • Free meals on duty
  • Professional, award winning training and development opportunities to give you a career path
  • Holiday allowance increasing with length of service up to 25 days
  • Two paid volunteering days each year
  • Hotel based incentive schemes
  • Discounted accommodation rates with The Red Carnation Hotel Collection & The Travel Corporation globally
  • Staff Appreciation Annual Party and other Employee Recognition Events
  • Employee Assistance Programme
  • Regular performance reviews to ensure you receive on-going feedback to help you grow and develop in your role
  • An exciting position within a hotel collection which has been recognised as an industry leader

 

The Red Carnation Hotel collection was officially recognised at Platinum standard Investors in People in 2020, the highest accolade it’s possible to reach - and we achieved this on a global basis.  This award recognises our commitment to all initiatives that are people and culture oriented, including career growth and opportunities for all, as well as our far-reaching commitment to sustainability, diversity and inclusivity. 

 

Additionally in 2020 we were recognised again with a Princess Royal Training Award for our hugely successful Management Programme, which has a prototypical track record in developing people and getting them “management ready” in both the company and sector.   We are truly proud to be awarded these two high profile accolades which are gloriously non-industry specific thereby pitching us against any business in any sector.  Our goal is to be an employer of choice for those willing to work hard, who are ambitious to find success and who are wishing to be rewarded well, paid fairly and treated as an individual within our family-owned and run atmosphere.

 

If this sounds like the Waiter / Waitress role for you then please apply today!
