Job description

Hello Margate

Pearly Cow Margate is now on the lookout for our next Waiting Team Member

Do you know how to carry three plates, remember five orders, and still greet guests with a smile that says, “You’re in for something special”? Can you talk steak temperatures like a sommelier talks wine, and describe seafood specials with the enthusiasm of a fisherman at dawn?

Pearly Cow is an independent collection of grill restaurants in Brighton, York and Margate, where we serve up the most indulgent cuts of meat and the freshest fish in gorgeous settings, where you’ll feel right at home.

What You’ll Bring Doing

• Welcoming guests and guiding them through the menu like a seasoned pro
• Taking orders with accuracy and flair — and delivering them with style
• Working closely with the kitchen and bar teams to keep service smooth
• Keeping the dining area looking sharp and running like clockwork
• Making every guest feel like they’ve just discovered their new favourite restaurant

What You’ll Bring To The Table

• Experienced in hospitality or eager to learn with the right attitude
• Confident, energetic, and great with people
• Calm under pressure and quick on your feet
• Passionate about food, service, and creating memorable moments

If your aspiration is to work for a company that understands you and trusts your instincts when it comes to hospitality and you’ve been looking for this kind of role for a while. Guess what, we’ve been looking for you too!

What’s in it for you!

• Work in a stylish, intimate restaurant that feels more like a home than a collection of restaurants.
• Be part of a small, close-knit team where your ideas matter.
• Competitive pay, and plenty of guest-powered stories.
• An extra holiday day for your birthday.
• No split shifts
• All breaks are paid.
• Our team have their own team room - with their own pantry full of food, to use whenever they like. Grab a snack! Plus, get a free meal on shift.
• You can stay/dine with your family and friends in any of our hotels/restaurants/spas at a great discount.
• The satisfaction of turning a meal into a cherished memory.

If you’re ready to serve up smiles, steak, and seafood in equal measure, apply now. Your next chapter starts here — and it’s sizzling.
