  • Experience in fine dining and strong food knowledge.
  • WSET Level 2 or equivalent wine qualification.
  • Deep understanding of wine, spirits, and seasonal British produce.
  • Strong leadership and motivational skills.
  • Excellent administrative and financial management ability.
Benefits
  • Healthy staff meals.
  • Trips to suppliers vineyards and farms.

  • WSET training.
  • External management and leadership courses.
  • 40% staff discount across the group's venues.
  • Social calendar and company events.
