Join the Opening Team at The Greyhound
The Greyhound is one of the best-known pubs in the Cromford and Matlock area and is currently undergoing a major refurbishment ahead of an exciting reopening in October 2026.
The venue combines a historic pub and restaurant with a nine-bedroom boutique hotel, and we are now building the front-of-house team that will help create the next chapter of The Greyhound.
We are looking for friendly, enthusiastic Waiting Staff to join our opening team.
