The Merchant of Battersea is the premier sports & live music bar of Clapham Junction. We pride ourselves on our awesome atmosphere during the big game, a friendly local to just catch up with friends and share a few drinks throughout the week, & the best live music venue through the weekend.
Recently reopened from refurbishment, weve launched a brand new menu, cocktail menu and table service serving claphams finest.
We are looking for new, dynamic bartenders & waiting staff to join our team, our ideal candidate is charismatic, detail oriented and able to work well within a team.
Tips and service charge are uncapped and shared equally amongst all staff pro rata'd to hours worked.
We offer flexibility within your working week and are more than happy to work around pre-existing commitments throughout your life. As we are a high volume business, proven experience in hospitality is essential to the role.
Here at Metro Pub Company, our mission is simple - we want this to be the best place you’ve ever worked.
Our pubs and our people have so much in common; individual, strong characters, local, independent and simply the best! Like any family, we’re protective over who we let into our fold – we only want the crème de la crème for our precious MPCo.
So what’s in it for you?
When you walk through our doors, we want you to feel as though you’re at home. You’re free to bring all that is your wonderful self into our pubs and in turn, we will reward you with the opportunity to progress and develop as far as your imagination sees fit. We have a cracking Apprenticeship programme if that’s your thing and we’re happy to set you up and watch you fly!
We offer competitive rates of pay and great discounts including 33% off all Metro and Greene King pubs and heavily discounted stays in our hotels.
Sounds good –but who are we?
We’re Metropolitan Pub Company (or Metro Pub Co for short). You’ve probably never heard of us as a collective but that’s the way we like it! Our pubs are unique and individual and we wouldn’t want them to feel any other way. We’re massive advocates of local pubs being just that, local, with their own character and charm. We were acquired by Greene King in 2011 and have continued to flourish under their umbrella. We have around 65 “urban locals” where we are proud to create warm and friendly places our guests don’t want to leave and teams who feel exactly the same.
