Coming back to good food, with cheeks glowing from the day’s adventures, is at the heart of the Watergate Bay experience. We want to inspire our guests with the best seasonal menus, local produce and contemporary dishes, and give them eating and drinking experiences to remember. It’s all about the balance of life - being active, getting amongst the elements, spoiling yourself a little, and most of all having a good time.

Join us and be a part of a team that values connection, flexibility, variety, challenge and making a positive impact on peoples' lives. We're all about making a meaningful impact and 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. As a member of our team, you'll work alongside others who prioritise our guests and support one another. 

Please note that this is a full-time position offered on a zero-hour contract to support our CPU Kitchen.

Our Kitchen Porter role:

At Watergate Bay Hotel, the kitchen is not just a place of work, but a vibrant and enjoyable environment where teamwork thrives. As a kitchen porter, you'll be an integral part of this dynamic team.

With your dedication and attention to detail, you'll help maintain a clean and organised kitchen, transforming it into a hub of creativity and culinary joy. From washing and sanitising dishes to keeping the kitchen tidy, your contributions will ensure a smooth operation that everyone can take pride in.

But it's not all about cleaning and organization. As a team player, you'll assist the chefs with ingredient preparation, handle deliveries with a smile, and support various kitchen tasks. Your enthusiasm and willingness to go the extra mile will enhance teamwork and create an even more enjoyable work environment.

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.

As our Kitchen Porter you’ll be:

• Ensuring the cleaning of all kitchen equipment, utensils, floor and working surfaces in the kitchen and adjacent areas, is carried out satisfactorily.
• Carrying out other duties as required to the Executive Chef, Head Chef and Management.
• Maintaining a high standard of cleanliness and personal hygiene to the standard required by the hotel and by law. 
• Ensuring full refuse bags are removed and replaced promptly, and that full swing bins are removed and replaced immediately, clearing any spillages.
• Cleaning the floor area daily or at the Chef’s discretion.
• Sweeping and cleaning the corridors and passageways through the kitchen.
• Washing crockery, cutlery and ensure that work surfaces are clean and tidy.
• Cleaning all pots in the pot wash area, and to maintain cleanliness of the area.
• Helping with any preparation needed for daily service
• Maintaining an organised, clean and safe workplace, not only for yourself but also for those around.
• Correctly recording all waste in the appropriate method – no member of staff is to remove any item without first checking with a supervisor and completing the kitchen wastage book.

The skills you’ll be sharing with us:

• A flexible attitude to working hours and variable shift patterns
• Interest and passion for the food industry
• Previous experience within a similar role
• A team-player mindset
• Guest service focus with attention to detail
• The ability to remain calm under pressure
• A genuine care about our team and our wider environment

What we’ll offer in return:

• A relaxed, professional place to work in a beautiful location – at one of the UK’s most striking beaches
• A welcoming team, eager to support and encourage each other
• Excellent career prospects in an ever-expanding organisation
• Special rates for you and your friends and family to stay at the Watergate Bay Hotel, and those within the wider Group
• Discounts on treatments in Swim Club
• Discounts for you and your friends and family at our restaurants: Zacry’s, The Beach Hut, and Living Space restaurants
• Discount at Cubs coffeeshops
• Free surf lessons, surfboards, and wetsuits hire from Wavehunters
• 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 on the sunny, sandy, Cornish coast, you'll never be short on inspiration.
