Conference and Banqueting Waiter/ Waitress

In a Nutshell

We are actively seeking a Conference and Banqueting Waiter/ Waitress to help make our events run effortlessly (whether they are conferences, weddings, meetings or private celebrations).

Lots to do but lots of fun

As a Conference and Banqueting Assistant you will be responsible for making sure the rooms are set up for the various functions, and help to meet the needs during the event. This will involve assisting the team in shifting furniture, setting up tea and coffee stations, assisting in lunch and dinner service, restocking supplies, assisting and directing the guests, and clearing away afterwards.

Are you right for us?

• A passion for the details – this is about getting it right for guests.
• If you have done this kind of work before that is an advantage but not essential.
• Confident communicator – It is important to know that everything is taken care of.

Are we right for you

Like any hotel group we expect a lot but we’ll give a lot to get the right people. There are 4 things we look for:

• We want people with bags of character. We don’t want you to hide your personality when you’re at work, we want you to feel comfortable, to be who you are.

• We want people people. You’ve got to like being around others, smiling and chatting because you like people, not because someone told you to smile and chat.

• We need extra milers. So if you think the job description is all you have to do, then we’re not for you.

• You have to put your heart into it. When you tell a guest you’re happy to help, you have to mean it.
