Job description

We can’t wait to open our first UK hotel outside of London… and where better than the characterful capital of Scotland, Edinburgh. We are now looking for a Bartender to join our team and play a crucial part in successfully launching our brand in this new neighbourhood. Reporting to the Bar Manager, you’ll be responsible for providing a highly efficient and effective service, ensuring standards are maintained and guests' needs are anticipated.

The Hox in Edinburgh will boast 214 bedrooms influenced by the Georgian heritage of the building and city (including the introduction of a new room category for the Hox), a main restaurant and big lobby & bar, a large event space, and The Apartment - our unique meetings and events concept.

Experience Italian glam and romance at Patatino, our all-day restaurant, designed to capture the essence of long, joyful, and convivial meals shared with friends on a sun-soaked Amalfi coast holiday. Imagine pizza, pasta, and a Negroni or two!

More about us…

The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and immerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces.

Job Description

What's in it for you...

• Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences.
• Competitive salary per hour.
• 29 days holiday (including bank holidays), pension, and life insurance.
• Food on us during your shift.
• Enjoy a free night at The Hoxton and a meal for two when you first start with us.
• Training to get you settled into your role with ongoing development that helps you think, make, and thrive to set you up for success at work.
• Time off to volunteer with one of our partner charities.
• Hox Hero and Nifty Fifty, our rewards for going the extra mile and living our values.
• An annual diversity and inclusion calendar of events creating opportunities for you to learn, celebrate, and make a positive impact.
• Regular team get-togethers, from our High Fives to our (pretty special!) team parties – we know how to have a good time!
• The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding.
• Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that is shaking things up on the hospitality scene.
• Excellent discounts across The Hoxton and the global Ennismore family.

What you’ll do…

• Create a fun and relaxed atmosphere where guests come to wind down and enjoy themselves.
• Know your product and systems inside out.
• Make whatever the mood calls for, from soft drinks to masterful cocktails that change with the seasons.
• Work with the rest of the team in keeping things running smoothly.
• Be more than a Bartender – willing to lend a hand and help the F&B team as a whole.

What we’re looking for…

• Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here.
• Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event, or a bed for the night.
• You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
• You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done.
• You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.
• If we got stuck in a lift together, we’d have a good time and share a few laughs.
• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other, and has fun along the way.
• Previous bartending experience and basic drinks knowledge.
• A thirst for knowledge – be it product, service, or everything in between.
• A natural people person – you’re confident behind the bar and brilliant with guests.
