Alongside the other frontline teams (Front of House, Security and Box Office) the Food & Beverage team plays a pivotal role as the public face of the theatre, welcoming audiences and visitors and delivering a first-class customer experience, whilst still ensuring service is fast enough to allow people to enjoy their visit in time before seeing a show.

Reporting to Food & Beverage management, the Supervisor will monitor and champion the Playhouse standards. They will be responsible for leading their team on shift to ensure the best service is provided to all customers across the range of Food & Beverage services.

We actively encourage people from a variety of backgrounds with different experiences, skills, and stories to join us and influence and develop the future of the Playhouse.
