Welcome to the Main Event: Become a Fridays Host

Bring the Energy. Set the Scene. Own the First Impression.

The red and white stripes. The glow of neon lights. The walls covered in pop culture and memories. At TGI Fridays, you don’t just walk into a restaurant — you step into an atmosphere filled with energy, joy, and a hint of magic.

Since 1965, we’ve set the standard for what it means to deliver unforgettable moments. From creating the Long Island Iced Tea to mastering flair bartending before it was mainstream, we’ve always been pioneers of experience. And now, it’s your turn to join the story.

Your Role

The Host With the Most

As a Fridays Host, you are the first and last impression — the beginning and the bow. You're the smiling face that sets the tone and ensures each guest experience starts and ends on a high.

This is more than a front-of-house position. It’s a role where you:

• Welcome every guest with warmth, enthusiasm, and confidence
• Manage bookings and waitlists with charm and efficiency
• Seat guests to ensure smooth service flow
• Maintain the vibe, energy, and organisation at the front desk
• Say goodbye with the same level of joy you greeted with

No experience? No problem.

We’ll train you, coach you, and support your development every step of the way. What we look for is personality, presence, pride, and passion — the drive to make every guest feel special and every moment memorable.

Availability to work evenings and weekends is essential — that’s when the curtain rises and the atmosphere reaches its peak.

Your Backstage Perks

• 100% of gratuities go directly to the team
• Time and a half pay after 48 hours per week
• Weekly pay – every Friday
• Flexible scheduling for genuine work-life balance
• Fast-track development and apprenticeship opportunities
• 50% discount on food for you and up to five guests
• Unlimited soft drinks while on shift
• Team celebrations for key dates like 4th of July and Thanksgiving
• Recognition programmes and performance incentives
• Refer-a-friend bonuses
• Wagestream – real-time access to your earnings
• 28 days paid holiday (pro-rata)
• Pension scheme participation
• A work culture grounded in authenticity, individuality, and fun
