Genuine permanent Restaurant and Bar Supervisor opportunity with an independently owned Hampshire based hospitality group, working in an amazing and fantastic, uniquely exciting and buzzy venue, managing functions and events, in a well-known restaurant.

The Restaurant and Bar Supervisor position in this Southampton based venue is full time and you will be responsible for all supervisory duties when the GM or AM is away, assisting the management team with all of the company's private events and functions, both in the restaurant and bar.

These are well-known and well celebrated functions, looked forward to by hundreds of guests during the course of the year, some are themed events adding an additional element of fun and excitement, others are more cabaret evening, music nights, traditional gala balls, dinner jacket and bow tie events.

You will make sure that the guest experience is not just achieved but excelled, going above and beyond expectations and high standards set, by making sure that all staff are well trained and drilled in high end guest expectations and service, so that the restaurant can offer consistently high standards and higher profitability.

You will be supervising FOH and BOH teams, providing an all-round excellent service to restaurant diners, and cater for a vast array of functions that can be for one group, or multiple groups, all at your unique venue for a particular singular event, or separate weddings, birthdays, hen parties, company celebrations etc.

Key Features of the Role:

The Company takes great pride in the quality of guest experience, high standards, fresh menu items, amazing drink selections it offers and the attentive, passionate and friendly staff they employ, at their vast arrays of fun and exciting events, functions, gala balls and soiree's.

As Restaurant and Bar Supervisor you will report to the AGM and GM, as well as being a trusted focal point for the restaurant and bar teams, making sure that standards are at their highest, and that all staff are working to the brand values and guidelines.

You will be that exceptional and passionate lynch pin between the frontline staff and management duo, making sure that you are helping your team members through busy shifts by getting stuck in and helping out.

You will work 5 days a week, utilising the strengths of your team, your personal skills and experience to pre-plan, organise and liaise with all relevant parties to run a smooth operation.

You will need to work closely with the kitchen to make sure they can manage with food orders, as staggering might be required during busy periods, and informing guests of any change to their expectations.

Knowledge and Skills Required:

To be successful in this role you will need to be an accomplished Restaurant and Bar Supervisor.

Current experience as a Restaurant and Bar Supervisor in a food orientated venue, dealing with functions (50 to 200 people), on a regular basis.

Supervisory experience of FOH and BOH teams, or other general management experience, ranging from 10-30 staff.

A restaurant or hotel environment ideally where high standards are an expected minimum, either through silver service, mutli-course dining, and table service.

Your practical experience should ideally be supported by some form of catering and hospitality qualification, and a wine pairing background would be ideal.

Passionate for staff training and development, promoting brand values and high levels of customer service standards in a fun but challenging environment.

Emotionally robust and someone who can thrive under pressure in a busy environment, as plans and cover numbers can change without warning, so someone who is prepared and who can think on their feet is an ideal match.

An excellent team player who can respectfully communicate to the team, take on criticism and push back, but keep your cool and professional attitude.

You must also want to take a career step up, through proving your skills, ability and dedication.
