You’ll be involved across our food and beverage operation, from welcoming guests and overseeing service to supporting the team, maintaining standards and helping to resolve any challenges that arise.

Most importantly, you’ll bring energy, personality and a genuine passion for hospitality.

• Can stay calm, positive and solution-focused when things get busy
• Understands the importance of food safety, hygiene and high service standards
• Is flexible and happy to work evenings, weekends, bank holidays and during busy periods

Experience is important, but
attitude is everything
. If you’re enthusiastic, curious and genuinely care about giving people a great experience, we’d love to hear from you.

We want our people to enjoy being part of New Forest Hotels and to have the opportunity to grow with us.

As part of the team, you’ll receive:
