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 operate friendly, welcoming, and positive kitchens with high standards, always striving to be the best we can be. These high standards are maintained thanks to our team of great kitchen porters, who are the heartbeat of our kitchens and essential to our success.

We are seeking a Kitchen Porter to join our team.

The Castle Inn is a traditional Dorset pub near Lulworth Cove, with a history dating back to the 16th century. It has been immaculately restored and serves as an ideal base for exploring Dorset’s stunning Jurassic coastline and the Isle of Purbeck countryside.

Under its picture-postcard thatched roof, you'll find a charming bar, a relaxed restaurant, and 12 boutique bedrooms. Outside, there's a large paved courtyard and a terraced garden with beautiful views. Kids and dogs are very welcome here.

Our laid-back atmosphere, all-day food offering, and friendly service make it a perfect home from home where families can relax, unwind, and explore this unique part of Dorset.

• Access to Liberation Life, a platform where you can earn cashback with major retailers and save on holidays, groceries, gifts, and more.
• A competitive hourly rate plus an equal share of tips; you will be paid for all hours worked.
• Industry-leading training and development through our bespoke ‘Pillars of Progression’ programme.
• Partnerships with HIT training for industry-leading apprenticeship schemes.
