This role would suit someone who takes real pride in doing a job well. Through the night hours, you will be the calm, reliable presence that ensures guests feel safe, comfortable and cared for - a custodian of the retreat while everyone sleeps.
Previous experience as a night porter is an advantage, though it is not essential. What matters most is that you are dependable, discreet and genuinely responsible. You will be someone who takes ownership of their shift, handles the unexpected with composure, and understands the importance of a well-run, welcoming environment.

- Pot wash – supporting the kitchen with pot wash duties
- Additional tasks – ad hoc tasks as directed, supporting the wider team across the retreat
- Dealing with Guests – Often there will be guests on site so looking after them and assisting with any issues that might arise
We are looking for someone who is:
- Reliable, responsible and loyal
- Comfortable working independently through the night
- Calm under pressure and confident to use their own initiative
- Respectful of a tranquil, guest-focused environment
Experienced in a similar role, or able to demonstrate the right personal qualities
- A good problem solver who remains calm under pressure
In return, you will work in a truly gorgeous environment, as part of a team that values the people who make the experience possible.
WE ARE ALSO RECRUITING ON A CASUAL BASIS
If you are not available for four nights per week but could offer one to two nights per week to complement our main team, we would love to hear from you. The same qualities apply- this is a wonderful opportunity to be part of something special on a more flexible basis.
