Breakfast Waiting Team Member | Part time, Permanent Contract | Clifton, BS8 | Starting ASAP
Early Bird? This one's for you.
We're Quarter - an independent hospitality group with four restaurants and four hotels right in the heart of Clifton, Bristol. We're proud of what we do, we look after our teams, and we're on the lookout for some brilliant morning people to join our breakfast crew at No.4 Clifton Village .
If you're the kind of person who's genuinely cheerful before 8am, takes pride in giving guests a great start to their day, and likes to be done and dusted by lunchtime - keep reading.
The Breakfast Waiting Role at a Glance
Contracted hours: part time, 8 hours per week
Schedule: your 8 hours per week will typically spread over 2-3 short morning shifts (rota based, including weekends and weekdays). Rotas are set in advance and we do our best to work around your availability - although the more flexibility you have, the better!
Shift timings: Weekday shifts are approx. 7am until 10 or 11am, weekend shifts are approx. 8am until 11am or midday
Pay: £11.00 - £12.71 per hour, plus tips
No.4 Clifton Village is a fine dining restaurant and events venue in Clifton Village, sharing a building with the Rodney Hotel. For the breakfast service, your customers will be hotel guests enjoying a plated, high quality table service breakfast. With a focus on the friendly but professional service and a range of guests - from wedding guests to those enjoying afternoon tea, this is a varied and fun venue to work in.
What You'll Be Doing as Breakfast Waiting Team Member
Welcoming guests and taking orders for hot breakfast items (being smaller boutique properties, our breakfasts are cooked to order rather than a large hot buffet)
Delivering food to tables promptly and with a smile (yes, even before your second coffee)
Setting up, maintaining and clearing down the small continental buffet area
Keeping the dining room looking smart throughout service
Helping with general clear-down at the end of your shift, and occasionally assisting with lunch or event set-up.
What We're Looking For
You don't need a lengthy CV or years of experience - but some experience in a customer-facing, hospitality setting would be ideal, and there are a few key things that'll make you a great fit:
You're a genuine morning person
You're warm, friendly, confident and comfortable chatting with guests from the moment service kicks off. A good sense of humour and a good level of charisma goes a long way too!
You're reliable - our guests are counting on a smooth breakfast, every time
You're a team player who's happy to muck in wherever needed
You take pride in doing a good job, even on a short shift
You can get yourself to Clifton (BS8) for an early start - please note there's no on-site car parking, but there's plenty of bike parking at all venues and great bus and train links in the area.
Previous waiting or hospitality experience is great, but a brilliant attitude and a winning personality will always win us over.
