We are seeking an experienced Waiter to join the team at Hyde Park Garden at the Iconic Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London for the summer season 2023.

About Hyde Park Garden

As guests enter through the iconic entrance on Knightsbridge and walk through the hotel to the Hyde Park Garden, they will be transported to a secluded, quintessentially British garden, situated in the Royal Park itself.

The menu will be inspired by British botanicals found in gardens all around the country, made with the finest of produce sourced from across the land and sea of the British Isles where possible. The drinks list will feature a celebration of English sparkling wines alongside cocktails creatively designed to be enjoyed whilst looking out across the most beautiful of the capital's parks.
