Job description

We are a bold, award-winning business that prides itself on offering an eclectic range of innovative, fresh, and seasonal menus that impress our customers within an industry-leading environment. We run friendly, welcoming, and positive kitchens with high standards, always striving to be the best we can be. It is these high standards, supported by a team of great kitchen porters—the heartbeat of our kitchens—that enable us to deliver excellence.

We are looking for a Kitchen Porter to join our team.

Welcome to The Fleet, located in beautiful Tyning near Tewkesbury. We are a riverside pub and restaurant with three brand new boutique bedrooms and a heated pergola terrace. Recently refurbished, The Fleet features gorgeous interiors, traditional pub charm, and unrivalled beer garden views over the River Avon.

Our pub menu focuses on locally sourced produce, seasonal ingredients, and pub classics. Outside, we serve street food-inspired treats from our open kitchen on the buzzing terrace and garden. Expect wood-fired pizza, smash burgers, seafood, loaded fries, and soft-serve gelato. At the bar, we offer a wide range of ale, lager, and cider from our award-winning brewery, Butcombe.

Our new bedrooms are cozy, with personal touches and super comfy beds—perfect for riverside relaxation or a family break.

Keep an eye out for exciting al fresco events and pop-ups throughout the summer. Our Boathouse is available for private hire for events or gatherings. If you're planning a day on the river, our private docking allows easy access to your vessel.

What’s in it for you?
