Job description

Company Description

As the original lifestyle hotels, St Martins Lane London and Sanderson London sit under the Morgans Originals brand, a collection of independent hotels sharing the same spirit. Equal parts glossy, surprising, and rebellious, we balance a refined outlook with careful chaos.

No two days are alike as we provide unique experiences every day, such as our Mad Hatters afternoon tea in the Sanderson courtyard or our signature cocktails in the Blind Spot at St Martins Lane – our speakeasy cocktail bar.

We have a fabulous opportunity to join St Martins Lane in our Food & Beverage team as a Food & Beverage Manager.

Job Description

As Food & Beverage Manager, you will be responsible for leading all Food & Beverage operations with energy, motivation, and commitment to deliver outstanding service and excellent financial results.

A bit about you:

• Be Original - We want our team to be themselves. We celebrate and welcome diversity in all forms, and we give you opportunities to discover your best self.
• Be a team player - We always support each other and work together to offer the best possible guest experience. Whatever challenge we face, we’re in it together.
• Loves to have fun at work - Working hard is a given, but making it fun is key. Make it fun for you, your team, and our guests. We create memorable experiences for everyone.
• Makes Positive impacts - We aim to make a positive impact, from small gestures to brighten someone’s day to supporting causes close to our hearts.
• Be Humble & Kind - We’re grounded and approach things with an open mind and kindness, both with guests and colleagues. The best idea wins, regardless of its source.
• Loves to think big & believe - We are dreamers and entrepreneurs—big, bold thinkers imagining what is possible. We challenge norms and create change, even if it means being wrong sometimes. The biggest risk is not taking any risks.

Qualifications

To be successful in this role, you should have:

• Three to five years of previous Food & Beverage operational experience, preferably in an upscale or lifestyle brand hotel.
• Knowledge of budgets, P&Ls, and all relevant financial responsibilities associated with the role.
• Proven ability to achieve payroll targets, F&B margins, and P&L targets through effective planning and proactive management.
• Full understanding of legal requirements related to Licensing, Food Safety, Hygiene, and Health and Safety.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy challenges.
• Experience in building, developing, and leading a team.
• Familiarity with current licensing regulations in London.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Strong attention to detail.
• Flexibility in working hours.
