Job description

The Belfry Hotel & Resort is an award-winning destination with 450+ luxurious rooms and suites, a selection of vibrant restaurants and bars, versatile event and meeting spaces and a relaxing leisure club and spa. Our three exceptional golf courses - including the legendary Brabazon - are celebrated around the world. Whether you're inspired by our iconic fairways, drawn to the tranquillity of the spa, excited by guest-facing roles, or energised by the work behind the scenes, you'll find your place within our dynamic and welcoming team.

The Belfry has undergone a major expansion and renovation with an investment of over £80 million, marking an exciting chapter in our history. The resort has been transformed with the addition of The Masters Suite, a stunning new event space, a state-of-the-art leisure club plus a host of other enhancements that elevate the Belfry experience like never before.

We believe in taking care of our team just as much as we do our guests. That's why we were named in the Caterer’s Top 30 Best Places to Work.

Sam’s Clubhouse

Overlooking our stunning PGA golf course, our high-volume sports bar, Sam’s Bar & Kitchen, is the perfect place to relax after a day’s golfing. This bar is busy all day, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We have a large outside terrace and bar and we have recently introduced Shuttle Board.

The menu in Sam’s Bar & Kitchen is a mixture of clubhouse classics and Belfry touches from sharing boards, burgers, and buckets of wings to wraps, pies and catch of the day… In summer season the outside patio and bar opens and can provide dining options for up to 250 guests at any time and approximately 500 covers per day.

The salary for this role is £12.71 per hour, plus tips.

About the role

You must be available to work a variety of shifts including weekends and evenings.

As a food and beverage assistant, your duties include all those of a waiter or bartender:

• To welcome all guests a polite and friendly manner
• To deliver a great experience from beginning to end
• To confidently talk about our menus, offer upsells and enthusiastically
• To take orders from our guests and proactively ensure that all of their needs are met
• Cleaning and good hygiene practices are a large part of this role
• To be able to work across all areas within Sam’s and the Driving range.
• To work across any of the outlets that are in need of assistance to ensure the smooth running of the resort as a whole.

The Ideal candidate will have experience working within a busy bar or restaurant, but this is not essential as we have a great team that will train you and give you all of the skills you need to be successful. If you do have previous experience that’s great, we will take your skills and elevate them in a department where you feel you would be the best fit. For all of our future employees our requirements are…

• You are passionate about delivering a fantastic service to our guests
• You enjoy engaging in conversation, talking about our products and the resort
• You are a natural when it comes to up- selling.
