Food and Beverage Supervisor

Come and join our team and let your passion and personality shine!

We’re looking for a friendly, confident and hands-on Food & Beverage Supervisor to join our team at The Bath Priory, a 5-star Relais & Châteaux hotel in the heart of iconic Bath.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who loves hospitality, enjoys leading by example and is ready to take the next step in their career. You’ll primarily be working breakfast shifts, helping to ensure our guests start their day with an exceptional experience, while occasionally supporting evening service when needed.

Working closely with the Food & Beverage management team, you’ll help lead, motivate and develop our front-of-house team, ensuring that every guest receives warm, thoughtful and genuinely memorable service.

Your usual working hours will be 07:00–15:30, with occasional evening shifts required. As with all hospitality roles, a degree of flexibility is important, and we’ll always do our best to offer fair and balanced rotas.

Here are some of the key parts of the role:

• Lead by example: Help supervise the daily breakfast operation, ensuring service runs smoothly and our guests feel genuinely welcome.
• Know your menu: We serve lots of delicious dishes, and we want you to feel confident explaining our menus, answering questions and making recommendations.
• Support and develop the team: Help train new colleagues, share your knowledge and encourage everyone to deliver their best.
• Create memorable experiences: Pay attention to the little details that make a big difference, anticipating guest needs and delivering thoughtful, personalised service.
• Keep standards high: Ensure our service, presentation, cleanliness and operational standards are consistently excellent.
• Be ready to adapt: Although breakfast will be your main focus, you may occasionally supervise or support evening service and other Food & Beverage operations.
• Work together: We’re one team, and we believe in supporting each other across departments whenever needed.
• Take ownership: Be confident handling guest requests and unexpected situations, knowing when to make decisions independently and when to seek support.

• Competitive salary, dependent on experience.
• Service charge and gratuities on top of your basic salary.
• Opportunities for career progression and personal development.
• Excellent discounts across our family of hotels.
• 25% off food and beverage across the group.
• Special staff rates of £25 B&B per person, with additional rates for friends and family.
• Retail and hospitality discounts through our Perkbox platform.
• Free meals while on duty.
• Access to a confidential Employee Assistance Programme.
• Recognition for your loyalty, including milestone awards and special experiences.
• A supportive team and a culture that values personality as much as professionalism.

The Bath Priory is home to two distinctive dining experiences:

• The Pantry Restaurant – relaxed, seasonal dining, with additional seating on our beautiful garden terrace.
• The Priory Restaurant – our fine-dining restaurant, awarded 3 AA Rosettes, serving breakfast, afternoon tea and celebratory dinners.

Our Food & Beverage team also looks after room service, meetings and events, and special occasions.

You’ll be joining a talented and welcoming team, with plenty of opportunities to learn about different areas of luxury hospitality.

We’d love to hear from someone who:

• Has previous experience in food and beverage, ideally in a supervisory or senior team member role.
• Is passionate about delivering outstanding hospitality and making guests feel special.
• Is confident supporting and motivating a team, leading by example.
• Has excellent communication skills and a warm, approachable personality.
• Is organised, proactive and comfortable taking responsibility during a busy service.
• Has a good understanding of food safety, hygiene and service standards.
• Is willing to learn, develop and occasionally support evening operations.
• Understands that exceptional service should feel natural, intuitive and never stuffy.

Luxury hotel experience is an advantage, but attitude, personality and a genuine passion for hospitality matter just as much.

At The Bath Priory, we believe that great hospitality starts with a happy, supported team.

Our culture is built around four values:

• Let Passion and Personality Shine
• Be Curious
• Show Thoughtfulness
• Share the Wisdom

We want our colleagues to build strong relationships, learn from one another and feel proud of what they do. We offer genuine opportunities to progress, with hundreds of internal promotions across our hotel group, including to General Manager level.

We also believe in recognising the people who make our hotels special. Our milestone awards include Champagne, afternoon tea or dinner for you and someone special, with additional rewards for longer service.

Set in a beautiful Georgian house built from honey-coloured Bath stone, The Bath Priory is a 5-star hotel with 33 bedrooms, four acres of multi-award-winning gardens and a reputation for exceptional hospitality.

We’re part of the Brownsword family of hotels and are proud of our longstanding commitment to quality, individuality and thoughtful service. Located just a short walk from Bath city centre, with a bus stop right outside, we’re a wonderful place to work and develop your career.

We share our service charge fairly across the hotel team. All service charge collected goes into one pot, with 100% distributed to our colleagues. Every penny received is paid out to the team.

For a full-time colleague, service charge has typically been worth around £160 per month, or close to £2,000 per year, on top of basic pay. Actual amounts vary depending on business levels.

We bring a family of hotels together under one roof, ready to welcome guests with open arms, warm hearts and experiences that are simply memorable.

Each of our hotels is unique, individual and full of personality. Quality is fundamental to everything we do, and we believe the simple things matter most. Everyone should feel included, special and welcome, whether they are a guest or a member of our team.

From award-winning Gidleigh Park in Devon and the 900-year-old Amberley Castle to our city-centre Abode Manchester, every property offers its own opportunities to learn and grow.
