Location :Located just 15 miles from Oxford, the Old Swan is in the picturesque village of Minster Lovell.
This quintessentially English inn and adjoining mill (over the road!) offers a relaxed yet professional environment to work in, with free parking spaces available for our team!

SERVICE CHARGE-We pay our team service charge each month! This service charge all goes into one pot, and 100% of that service charge is then shared amongst all the team at the hotel-every penny received is paid out to the team.
Service charge can be in the region of £285 a month (around £3,400 per year) over and above base pay, for a full time employee.

Come and join our team as a
Kitchen Porter and let your passion and personality shine

Our culture is important to us, and
we encourage everyone in our teams to show thoughtfulness towards each
other and our guests.

As a Kitchen Porter, you will be
working as part of a passionate team of chefs. You will play a crucial part in
keeping the kitchen areas clean and tidy.

Experience in a similar role is
an advantage, although not essential.

Check out some of the key points
about the role:

• You’ll be an important part of this busy
  kitchen, as without clean plates, cutlery, and pots and pans, our chefs won’t
  be able to cook and serve their delicious meals.
• Being one team, everyone in the kitchen
  is responsible for keeping it clean.

Work/life, or as it should be called
life/work balance is important to us all, so we will always try to be fair with
our rotas. We just ask that you can be
flexible with us, so we can be flexible with you in return.

To say thank you, we have
many perks:

• Competitive pay – We are proud that
  everyone who joins our group gets a competitive a rate of pay,
  irrespective of age, plus you get service charge and tips on top.
• Treat yourself once in a while with lots
  of retail and hospitality perks through our Perkbox platform.
• Excellent discounts across our family of
  hotels – you will be entitled to 25% off food & beverage in our hotels
  plus we offer an amazing staff rate of £25 B&B per person across the
  group & your friends and family get special rates too.
• We understand it’s OK not to be OK, so we
  offer an externally run confidential helpline for any support you require
  about anything you might need as part of our Employee Assistance
  Programme.
• We sustain you physically too, meals when
  you are on duty are free.
• To be the best version of yourself, we
  encourage our teams to be curious. Everyone can learn and develop -
  our development pathways are unique to us and are the best in the
  business.
• We provide lots of opportunity to
  progress and move up – we have made hundreds of internal promotions,
  including to General Manager level.
• We like to say a special thank you for
  every year you are with us - our milestone awards include Champagne,
  afternoon tea, or dinner for you and someone special. When you reach the
  big milestones, you receive extra special gifts on top like longer hotel
  stays, extra days off and a unique gift especially chosen for you.
