Full job description

Steeped in history and situated in the heart of Belgravia, The Pembroke stands apart as a unique club for Londoners. From the spirit of our members to the splendour of our events, we are a home for eclectic and excellent living. A place to eat, drink, dance and meet, The Pembroke opens its doors to those who wish to fill their world with the finest experiences, from cocktails to culture, billiards to business.

Our fifth floor Whisky Bar, serving cocktails and a small selection of bar snacks, will be open late afternoon until late night. Stretching across two rooms, the space also includes 'The Nest' an exclusive area for our Committee and Life Members.

ROLE OVERVIEW

To further elevate and enhance our operations, we are seeking an accomplished Cigar Sommelier to contribute and deliver on the club’s success, providing exceptional experiences for our members.

The Cigar Sommelier will play a key role in the delivery of the club’s cigar service, supporting the Bars Manager and Assistant Bars Manager in the day-to-day execution of the cigar and bar programme. This role requires a strong foundation of cigar and bar knowledge, an instinct for personalised service and a genuine passion for hospitality. The Cigar Sommelier will be responsible for providing expert guidance to members and guests, maintaining impeccable service standards and contributing to a refined and engaging cigar and bar culture within the club. The ideal candidate will be polished, curious and commercially aware, with experience in a luxury hospitality or private members' club environment.

The role will involve managing a skilled cigar team, overseeing inventory and stock control and contributing to the development of unique and sophisticated cigar menus tailored to the club’s discerning clientele. The Pembroke is a late-night venue open from speciality coffee at breakfast to martini’s at 3am, and you would be responsible for the delivery of smooth service by you or your team at all times.
