Job description

Bartender, Prezzo Italian The first drink sets the tone for the whole night.

Make it yours.

Our refurbished restaurants look stunning, with more on the way, and the food has never been better.

Guests are noticing and the momentum is real.

Now we need Bartenders who love their craft and love the buzz of a busy restaurant.

Who we are Brava Hospitality Group is the home of great restaurant brands.

We're the group behind Prezzo Italian, in towns and cities right across the UK, and a collection of much-loved central London restaurants: Jamie's Italian, Riding House Café, Nessa, Yasmin, Mortimer House Kitchen and, most recently, Bolo by Gennaro.

And we're growing the footprint of every one of our brands.

We're restaurant people at heart, and we believe every guest deserves brilliant food and exceptional hospitality from teams who love what they do.

Prezzo Italian has been bringing the Italian classics to towns and cities across the UK since 2000. For our 25th birthday we gave it a fresh start: a brand-new look, beautifully redesigned restaurants, and a menu built around the dishes people love, made fresh and cooked properly.
