Job title - Kitchen Porter
Report to: Head Chef
Location: Set on a North Devon cliff top with an area of outstanding natural beauty wrapped around the hotel…. beauty that makes time stand still and provides a stunning backdrop whilst you ensure our guests receive customer service that matches the view! Sandy Cove Hotel is located next to its own stunning, private & secluded Beach and within a short drive to other amazing beaches off the Atlantic coastline. With ever changing seasons there is always a great reason for guests to visit Sandy Cove, ensuring our team are busy all year round.
With our 3 Rosette, Michelin recommended Seacliff restaurant, or our more family-oriented dining option of the Cove restaurant, the expectations and standards we set ourselves are high – can you match them? Alongside with arguably, North Devon’s best wedding venue, our stunning new Spa facilities and 38 en-suite bedrooms, many of which have a stunning sea view, we’re looking for team members to join our kitchen who will add to the Sandy Cove magic and reflect the 4* status that our guests have rightly come to expect.
Hours: Full & part time available, we are flexible and want work to fit your plans too, so let’s talk about how we can make this work for both of us!
We are looking for motivated and enthusiastic individuals who have a passion for maintaining a clean, professional and hygienic and are capable of managing multiple tasks within a busy kitchen environment. The ability to work well in a team but equally confident to work effectively on their own, in sometimes high-pressured problem-solving situations.
The applicant will need some kitchen experience and ideally within a busy environment as they will be responsible cleaning, stock rotation, managing deliveries and managing the kitchen pot washing area.
