Receptionist & Front of House

Newquay, United Kingdom The Kitchen by the beach Full time

We are currently looking for hard working, energetic and engaging people to join our guest services and restaurant teams. We have two main roles:

- working in reception, dealing with customer enquiries, bookings and questions, both on the phone and in person.
- working in our cafe restaurant (and outdoor pool bar over the summer months), taking orders from and serving customers, coordinating with our chefs and making drinks from coffees to cocktails.

We think the two roles require similar skills and character, and ideally would like to find people who can work primarily in one but are happy to cover the other when needed. But if one appeals more than the other, that’s fine. We want people to be doing things they enjoy.

Experience in one or other role is preferred but not essential as training will be given. We are a customer driven business and hours will need to be flexible to meet their needs, including some evenings, weekends and bank holidays. That said, some of our team like working evenings to keep their days free for surfing, and some need to structure their shifts around childcare and other commitments, so we will do our best to be flexible too.

We would love to hear from you whether you are looking for a full time career in the hospitality industry, are a parent returning to work, have retired or moved to Cornwall and are looking for a new challenge, are a student looking for a summer job before returning to education in the autumn, or want to work part time around other work or study commitments. Our current team includes people in all these categories and more.

Pay rate: £12 - £13.50 per hour (depending on skills and experience)
