JOB OVERVIEW
Have you ever seen anyone crying whilst eating a pie? Just saying.
Hobbsons is a best of British restaurant specialising in pies and very much lives up to its name with its nature: take it or leave it. We are seeking a Supervisor that can bring their personality and people skills to the role, whilst being able to effectively manage and lead a team.
All our food is freshly made by our chefs and is something that we, soon to be you, have every right to be proud of. We’re looking for a team that radiates a smile to the dining room and that has genuine enthusiasm for making a positive impact on somebody’s day. A sense of humour is not desirable; it’s essential! If this sounds like you, then you’re the person for us and we’re the company for you.
PERSON SPECIFICATION
The ideal candidate will lead by example, communicating clearly effectively with the front and back of house team and running the shift whilst upholding company standards. They must also be able to lead and organise a team effectively, motivate the team appropriately, be able to delegate tasks to the Front of House team, have a keen eye for detail, work well under pressure and be able to multi-task whilst delivering excellent service to our guests in a warm, friendly manner. We encourage you to let your personality loose because we believe that the team creates the atmosphere and memories for our guests. We’d love our Supervisors to lead by example by being able to confidently strike up a conversation with our guests, whether that be about their dog, their kids (who are probably a lot less cute than their dog) or punting.
