What we look for |

We're looking for someone who shares our values and can embody the Wagamama way through how you show up at work. A great team player who can work well in a fast-paced environment. You'll have good interpersonal skills and be able to deliver that all-important lasting impression and overall exceptional experience for our guests. Having an interest in fresh food and meeting great people. You don’t need experience to join us as a front of house team member; we’ll provide all the training you need.

The Wagamama way |

Kaizen, meaning ‘good change,’ is the philosophy that sits at the core of who we are. It shapes every dish we create and pushes us to find better ways in all we do. Our food, how we think, how we work, it has to be fresh. We are committed to championing change in our communities and the impact on the planet.

Three decades of acting differently; we don’t conform, we celebrate difference. We appreciate personality over perfection. Welcoming everyone and their unique story to our benches. We promise to have your back, working together to build close bonds of trust and support. Creating safe spaces where we can have real conversations with open hearts and open minds.

All we ask is for you to dish up what makes you different.
