Another Place Hotel – a place to take your hospitality career to new heights. With a team that values connection, flexibility, variety, and challenge, we're all about making a meaningful impact on our guest’s holiday. Our three core values - We Care, We Notice, We Change – show what it means to work for a hotel which goes above and beyond for our team and guests. At Another Place, we don't just provide a place for our guests to rest their heads - we create memorable experiences that they'll remember for a lifetime.

Do you love great coffee, seasonal menus and drinks from local suppliers, as well as growing your skills? Are you a team player who serves with warmth and enthusiasm? Do you enjoy island views, exploring the dunes, and Fat Biking after work? If so, we want you! Join us and be part of a team that values connection, creativity, and making a positive impact on people's lives.

The role:
At our hotel, we’re looking for a team who are passionate about The Machrie, local food and drink producers, and are eager to be a part of this incredible way of life. As a member of our team, you'll work alongside others who prioritise our guests and support each other.

We seek dynamic individuals who value positive lifestyle choices and excel as food and beverage all-rounders. From crafting exquisite coffee for early risers to mixing cocktails, you'll take pride in every aspect of your role as a waiter, barista, or mixologist.

Joining our team means being part of a community that values excellence, innovation, and kindness in everything we do. Our commitment to our staff is reflected in our exceptional working environment - one that promotes work-life balance, professional development, and plenty of opportunities for growth.

What your days could look like:

• Welcome guests in a warm, friendly, timely and relaxed yet professional manner
• Work in all areas of the restaurant
• Prepare hot and cold drinks
• Continually build upon company and product knowledge and give input on how we could develop and improve
• Take part in team tasting sessions to give you an authentic understanding of our menus for answering guest questions and boosting team creativity and rapport
• Keep the area you’re responsible for clean, tidy and organised
• Take care of guests’ billing
• Give new team members a helping hand, and support their training and development
• Work together, as part of our committed, efficient and dynamic team

Job skills & requirements:

• Barista, waiting or bar experience – or time working in other people-facing roles in retail or leisure. But it’s also about personality fit and attitude, so we’re happy to offer full training for the right candidates who may have less experience.
• A team player, with bags of enthusiasm and personality
• A real energy and passion for everything you do
• A desire to provide an excellent guest experience
• A genuine intent to use the latest technology for a smooth ordering and billing process, without compromising guest experience
• The ability to work smart, and understand that self-belief and hard work will always earn you success

What we can offer in return:

• A relaxed, professional place to work in a beautiful location – Islay ‘the queen’ of the Hebridean archipelago off the west coast of Scotland
• Excellent career prospects in an ever-expanding organisation
• Special rates for you and your friends & family to stay at Another Place Hotels and Watergate Bay Hotel
• Discounts for you and your friends & family to eat at our restaurants
• Team social events throughout the year
• Team assistance scheme – a dedicated helpline for support & advice on topics from mental health through to managing your finances

From discounted stays to training and development opportunities, we're all about helping our team achieve their personal and professional goals. Located above the dunes of a seven-mile beach on the Scottish island of Islay, you'll never be short on inspiration. Working at Another Place isn't just a job - it's a transformative career opportunity. Apply now and join us in creating memorable experiences that our guests and team remember for a lifetime.
