Company Description
We’re looking for a plate-balancing, people-loving Waiter at The Hoxton, Edinburgh to keep the food, drinks and good vibes flowing.
Reporting to the Restaurant General Manager, you’ll be responsible for helping run the day-to-day breakfast service and deliver a friendly service.
We’ve opened our doors in Edinburgh’s charming West End - our very first Hox in Scotland. Set across 11 beautiful Georgian townhouses, we’re home to 214 bedrooms, a lively open lobby and bar, an all-day Italian trattoria Patatino, a retro-inspired cinema, a flexible and super-size event space called The Get Together, and The Apartment – our unique signature spot for meetings, private dinners and memorable gatherings.
Patatino is our all-day Italian trattoria serving fresh pasta, wood-fired pizzas, and all the spritzes and Italian wines you could wish for. Inspired by the glam and romance of the sun-soaked Amalfi coast, it’s a spot for long, joyful meals with friends, where old-school charm meets modern design, with bold colours, cosy corners, and plenty of personality.
More about us…
The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and submerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces.
Job Description
What's in it for you...
- The flexibility to choose when you want to work, perfect for students, side-projects, or anyone wanting control over their schedule or juggling other commitments.
- Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences.
- Competitive salary plus holiday pay.
- Food on us during your shift.
- The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding.
- Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that is shaking things up on the hospitality scene.
What you’ll do…
- Simply put - you’re the face of our guests’ experience and you bring your own flavour to the(ir) table, making sure that from the moment they arrive to when they leave, they’re having a great time.
- Work in the mornings with the F&B team in keeping things running smoothly.
- Create a fun and relaxed atmosphere where guests come to wind down and enjoy themselves.
- Provide a genuinely welcoming and memorable experience for our guests, from a Hox welcome, to handling any questions and helping out with requests.
- Anticipate needs and proactively provide solutions so that our guests’ expectations are not only met but exceeded.
What we’re looking for…
- Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here.
- Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night.
- You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
- You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done.
- You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.
- If we got stuck in a lift together, we’d have a good time and share a few laughs.
- You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other, and has fun along the way.
- If you have previous experience, great! But it’s not a must-have for us; it’s how you contribute to the team that matters.
- Nothing is an issue for you, you know what our guests want even before they do.
