Be You, Be Wagamama

Wagamama is proudly part of the Disability Confident scheme.

As this position is based in an airport, successful applicants will need to apply for an airport pass (paid for by Wagamama). This process requires providing five years of continuous references and completing a DBS check. If a pass cannot be obtained, we will consider placements in nearby non-airport locations.
