You'll welcome all our guests by name, if they're regular, making everyone from business people to locals feel like our only guest. You'll make sure every dish arrives on time and the guests are happy. You'll keep an eye on the bar. Atmosphere. Lighting. Reception. All while anticipating, and quietly sorting out any potential hiccups before they happen.

•A natural leader, you know how to get the best from the floor team
•A good communicator, exceptionally friendly and inclusive, even after a long shift
•Experience in supporting the seamless running of a restaurant by providing excellent guest service
•Ability to work effectively as part of a team and work on your own initiative

What's in it for you?

As well as a chance to add one of the world's most prestigious names to your CV, you'll get:
•Top class training, before the job, and on the job
•Meals from our menu and discount in all our restaurants
•Lots of benefits including your uniform, childcare vouchers, cycle to work scheme, a recommend a friend scheme and savings on things like gym membership and cinema tickets

Where next:

With more restaurants opening next year, The Ivy Collection is your oyster. You could help open a new site. Move to head office. Take on a bigger team. Tell us your plans and we'll help you get there.

The Ivy Soho?

Bigger. Buzzier. And, with your help, even better than anything we've done before. Welcome to The Ivy Soho, arriving on Broadwick Street in December 2016. Spanning 7,500 square feet and with over 200 covers, we'll need to be on our toes from morning tea to late-night tipples.
It's bound to be busy. Certain to be stylish. Poised to be perfect. Have you got what it takes?
