Job description

Be a Kitchen Porter but most importantly be you!

Voted into the Times' 100 Best Places, Bishopstrow is a whimsical country house hotel set within 30 acres of glorious Wiltshire countryside and there's genuinely nowhere quite like it. Gregarious rooms, a newly launched spa, The Grill restaurant, and a kitchen garden that feeds both all wrapped up in Georgian elegance with a healthy dose of colour and imagination.

We're in the middle of an exciting chapter right now. New suites, a reimagined kitchen garden restaurant, and a spa that's causing quite a stir. If you want to be part of something that's growing, evolving, and always a little bit surprising, this is the place.

What's it like to work here?

Much like the hotel itself imaginative, warm, and never boring. We're a playful team who back each other to stay unconventional, whether you're brand new to hospitality or this is your life's work. Our community is diverse, inclusive, and genuinely big-hearted; the kind of place where you're encouraged to be fully, unapologetically yourself.

We care deeply about our guests, each other, and the wider community. And yes we're absolutely serious about giving people a bloody good time.
