Assistant Sommelier
Job Description:
Wine not join the best team in town???? Assisting the Sommelier to take responsibility for the wine service of the restaurant, the wine cellar, functions & events and providing amazing hospitality to our guests. Assistant Sommeliers will be required to manage the wine list, stock, suppliers as well as supervise and assist the food and beverage team in providing guests the best dining experience. You will also be required to help ensure all standards are met with attention to detail, recommending wines and creating memories of an experience the guest will never forget. You must be passionate about wine and delivering amazing hospitality to our guests. Assistant Sommeliers must be organised, an excellent communicator, hands-on and have excellent attention to detail. Experience of working in a similar quality restaurant is required and knowledge of wine and beverage is necessary - having passion for hospitality and delivering service with a smile is an absolute must.
There's something truly magical about Devon. The artist Brian Froud references it - and especially the dramatic vistas of Dartmoor National Park - as the inspiration behind some of his best work. So welcome to our "contemporary wonderland" as Alastair Sawday dubbed us, in the heart of this sublime city. Take a step inside this iconic building, formerly the West of England Eye Hospital, where historic walled gardens and striking architecture create the backdrop for a truly special experience. As our newest property, this glorious Exeter hotel is brimming with its own charm and unique personality, distinct from our other hotels but equally impressive in its own right. Hugo Dalton was inspired to mural our lounge wall, opening out onto the magical terrace and garden perfect for sketching faeries, writing novellas or simply sipping a glass of Pinot. If the weather doesn't inspire you a short meander through our library certainly will, whilst the call of the bar and bistro is sure to tempt you with its fantastic range of bottles and beautiful French-inspired menus.
