Job description
Are you someone with a genuine passion for hospitality and heaps of personality? Are you a square peg tired of those round holes? Do you wear a lot of black and listen to loud music when you’re sad?
Maybe it’s time to join The Wilderness’ gang of creative, charismatic humans and unleash your potential.
The Wilderness is a rock and roll fine dining restaurant in the Jewellery Quarter. We have the best guests in the city (sorry, but it's true) and we've remained one of the most exciting restaurants in Birmingham for almost 8 years - just ask The Good Food Guide. We hold 3 AA rosettes, we've made it on to some lists and bagged some awards along the way, but most importantly, we know who we are, what we do, and we're passionate about doing things differently.
We want to work with ambitious and memorable people. You will be a positive team player who wants to work hard and play hard, joining a well-established team to help us on our continued journey to build something we’re all proud of.
You’ll be supported by our stupidly talented (award-winning) FOH team, fronted by superstar Sommelier and GM, Sonal Clare. Previous hospitality experience is essential. We absolutely encourage applicants from all backgrounds and all walks of life.
Our ideal candidate will be cocktail trained but looking to expand and diversify their knowledge.
WHAT WE OFFER
Decent pay, plus a juicy tronc scheme
Sundays and Mondays off (we’re actively working towards offering a 4-day week - join us so we can make it happen)
Annual Christmas closure
Access to a free mental health support scheme
A dedicated HR manager to support your career goals
Staff food – or sometimes, staff Domino’s – and ad hoc bevs
All the normal things you’d expect (holidays, parental leave, etc.)
