Be You, Be Wagamama:

Wagamama is proudly part of the Disability Confident scheme.

As this role is located at 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.

*Note: 100% of tips go to our teams. Tips vary by restaurant, are at guest discretion, and are not considered wages or guaranteed by the company.
