  • Maintain stock levels by making orders, receiving & checking deliveries as they come in, rotating stock, and practising good cellar management
  • Respond to customer bookings and queries, organise reservations, table plans & parties, ensuring everything needed is prepared and ordered ahead of time according to upcoming bookings
  • Ensure the venue is always clean, organised and presentable, and cleaning, opening & closing checklists are followed and maintained
