Part Time Bar Team - London

Team Member

Hi, I'm Dan, and I'm proud to run the incredible 'Duke of Wellington' on the world-famous Portobello Road!

Our pub features in the opening scenes of the 1999 classic 'Notting Hill', but we established ourselves as an iconic part of the neighbourhood during its construction back in 1854 (just two years after the original Duke passed away!) The pub still retains some of her original features including a 360 bar, where tourists from around the world flock from the moment we open our doors, and our fireplaces where you might find Notting Hill locals and the occasional celebrity (Adele signed her first contract here!) relaxing with a drink on a winter's evening.

These features are not the only thing that defines our lovely pub though, as we are constantly building a team of passionate and fun people (like yourself?) to do everything from pouring drinks on our outside bar in summer, to chatting to people from around the world at the bar, to taking orders and bringing food to hungry guests in our Dining Room & Snug, or even to 'hosting' a party at our upstairs bar in the gorgeous Peacock Room.

In the kitchen our team of hard-working & efficient chefs deliver a fully bespoke menu of freshly prepared, premium meals to visitors, regulars and neighbours alike, as well as stunning buffets and canapes for our function guests.

Geo, Jan, Mike & Scott lead our Front of House team and can offer all the skills needed to deliver great service no matter how busy we get. On top of all of this, as part of Young's we are keen to develop our people and help them find the next step if they are keen for a career in hospitality.

If all of this catches your eye, then apply and head to our screening questions. All we ask is that you currently live within a sensible commute distance, and that you are keen to share something interesting about yourself when you apply.

What we look for in a Team Member:

We are currently looking for part timers who are comfortable working between one and two shifts in a week as part of our dynamic team. Prior experience in pubs or a fast-paced restaurant would be ideal to keep up with the speedy service on market days, and please let us know if you are fluent in French, Spanish or Italian which are all a leg-up when it comes to delivering above guest expectations.

As the successful member of our team you will have a passion to deliver exceptional customer service every time, with a friendly outgoing personality and desire to work as part of a team. You'll get lots of training, learn about all our products & have a good time along the way.
