The role

At a glance, your role is to work as part of a team to serve food and drinks to the correct specification, working efficiently, all while maintaining high standards of cleanliness, safety and customer service.

Our pubs open early and close late, so we offer great flexibility with shift patterns, including mornings, evenings, weekends and late finishes.

Duties Include

taking orders, preparing, dispensing and serving drinks to the correct spec, whether at the bar or via the customer app
delivering food to customers, ensuring that check-backs are completed and clearing plates within the required timeframe
providing friendly customer interactions: say "hello", thank customers and build rapport
being knowledgeable about promotions, events and new products
maintain our `clean as you go` standards, including clearing tables, wiping surfaces and carrying out toilet checks
working in all areas, including glass-washing, restocking fridges, floor and beer garden clearing and other duties, as needed

Progression and development

Most Wetherspoon team leaders and managers started in the kitchen or behind the bar.

If you`re looking to progress, we can support your development with:

structured on-the-job training
apprenticeships and management academies
cross-training into other areas (kitchen, hotel)
opportunities to move into team-leader, kitchen-shift-leader and/or pub-manager roles.

Wetherspoon promotes an inclusive working environment where everyone is welcome.

When you`re at work, we want you to feel comfortable being yourself. Whatever your background, preferences or beliefs, we`ll ensure that you have the skills and knowledge you need for a great career with us.

Under-18s may attract a lower rate of pay, always in line with, but usually above, national guidelines.
