Part of Crimson Hotels, The Trafalgar St. James, Curio Collection by Hilton is a 5 Star hotel with 131 bedrooms including 15 suites, and a number of venues consisting of our unique The Rooftop Bar and Rockwell that pride themselves in the quality of service that they provide.

We are looking for a Head Waiter/Waitress for our pre-opening vibrant bistro and wine bar. Serving modern European cuisine complemented by an exciting global wine list.

The Role

As a Head Waiter/Waitress, you will play a key part in creating meaningful experiences for our guests. Your role is to deliver exceptional service, lead by example, and ensuring hotel quality standards are maintained whilst achieving maximum revenue and guest satisfaction. You will need to ensure you demonstrate a thorough understanding of all menu items provided.

You will also - but not be limited to:

  • Work well as a team to ensure swift and efficient service to all our guests.
  • Anticipating guests’ needs and carrying out these requests courteously and helpfully. Look to resolve all complaints during each shift and log complaints for further follow-up.

The Person

You will have excellent verbal and written communication skills, produce quality work and be flexible to work early morning shifts. Shifts may vary.

Although experience within a similar environment is preferable, we look for attitude, quality, and interpersonal skills rather than experience as we will give you the tools to ensure you are successful in your role.
