We are a small, independently owned family business offering a unique role to be a part of a busy, passionate and creative team who host daily events and hospitality experiences. 

We are looking for a confident, composed, authentic and self motivated individual with a ‘can-do’ attitude to join our team to be a large part of the delivery of our busy schedule of events. 

This is the perfect role for anyone who has a sincere dedication to delivering a creative, profitable and world class experience with a great passion for hospitality with a clear understanding and enjoyment of this industry in terms of evenings and weekend work. 

Working alongside the Head of Event Delivery you will be responsible for the Front of House & Bar Team and all guest experiences alongside Head of House at The Mowbray and The Chimney House.

Our events span from weekday meetings/conferences and smaller private dining to 150 seated weddings and private dining events to sell out supper clubs at the weekends. 

Excitingly the role in time expands to include full involvement to deliver our third site - another restoration of another iconic Sheffield property into a brand new concept. This is another exciting chance to make your mark in the hospitality and events industry and plenty of scope to develop your career both personally and professionally. 

We offer great rates of pay and potential for bonus structure based on performance as well as the chance to work in beautiful venues and as part of a like minded, creative and close knit team working towards a common goal which is to deliver world class events. 

This is a full time salaried role - and you must have up to 2 years proven experience of working in hospitality and a genuine desire to jump head and heart first into our business and to hit the ground running. 

Your willingness to dedicate time, effort and energy to making this role your own is incredibly important to us - as is total transparency and honesty. It’s an incredibly exciting time and with that - an amazing chance to take a positive step forward in your career. 

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

The ideal candidate is someone at Supervisor/Team Leader level currently working in a pub/restaurant/cafe who is looking to make that next step in their career. Someone with all the sound practical experience of running service, who is looking to develop their career.

It is important to note that the majority of our events take place over a weekend - on Saturday and Sunday and also midweek evenings. Ideally - you will already be used to working in hospitality and understand that after you have delivered the event - breakdown and sometimes re-set for the next event is necessary - so late finishes are to be expected.
