Summary
About The Role
We’re looking for proactive, friendly people with great customer care skills to join our catering team.
You will be working in a fast-paced environment ensuring customers are served efficiently and to a consistent standard using great customer service.
Your duties will include operating the till EPOS system to take orders, serving hot drinks, table service, and cleaning to food safety legislation standards. Once you’re fully trained, you’ll also be required to work alone serving in our kiosks in the grounds. All profits made by our restaurant go directly towards our vital conservation work worldwide to restore wetlands and unlock their superpowers!
You’ll be a member of a very friendly, lively, supportive and committed team. If you like hard work and the feeling of achievement, this could be the job for you.
