One of the family...
The clue is in the name. We’re a family business through and through – family owned, family run, with a warm family welcome for guests and team alike. Our seven hotels are unique and set in three stunning Scottish locations. Some are big, some are small and all offer good food drink, great beds and a ton of outdoor and indoor things to do and a fun place to work.
The Kingshouse Hotel
The Kingshouse Hotel is part landmark hotel, part adventurer’s bunkhouse – slap-bang in Glencoe and on Scotland’s world-famous West Highland Way. We have 57 bedrooms offering a great night’s sleep plus the bunkhouse offering shared rooms, a restaurant and two bars. Everyone is welcome and everyone will feel at home.
Our estate-to-plate ethos runs through all our restaurant and bar menus. Inspired by our location and Scotland’s abundant land and sea larder we use the best of ingredients to guarantee our guests an exceptional experience, brimming with Scottish hospitality and flavour.
About the role
We love our restaurants and so do our guests. We are looking for someone who is going to be as passionate about great food, wine and customer service as we are. You’ll get to talk to our many customers and make sure they’re having a great time; we want all our guests to experience great hospitality.
First impressions really count, you’ll make sure the Restaurants are always just right and the customers’ needs are always met, the customer is priority number one. You’ll know all of our products so you can recommend particular dishes and wines from our menu. Flexible to help out the rest of the team, you’ll make sure our customers always receive a quick, efficient and friendly service whilst also having the responsibility for training, team development and stock control to name a few.
What we need from you:
- Restaurant Management experience – in high volume food and drink roles
- Passion – for quality service
- Team focus – there are no egos here, just hard-working people who love creating memorable experiences for every guest
- Ideas and openness – we’re up for doing things differently and will try (almost) everything once
- Fun and easy to talk to – we’re looking for personality, not a corporate clone
- Flexibility – there’s no problem you can’t fix
What you'll get from us
- Development / Career progression – we’re committed to developing our people and will provide training opportunities to help you progress your career
- Great benefits – including pension, leisure membership, and discounts on food and hotel stays
- Live-in accommodation – in one of the world’s most stunning locations
- Uniform – We can’t wait to show this off
Getting here
We’ll supply regular transport for our team members who work shifts.
We’re only a 40 minute drive from Fort William.
For those wanting to use public transport, you can catch a bus just five minutes from the Hotel. Buses also go from here to Glasgow/Edinburgh or North through the Highlands to Inverness – a couple of hours either way. There’s up to eight a day in summer and a few less in winter so good for getting away on your days off.
The legendary Kingshouse hospitality is your first clue that it might – just might – be possible.
Our crackling fires thaw the coldest of bones – with a little help from locally sourced food, beers and single malts. All served with views to tempt even the weariest to proclaim themselves ready to do it all again the next day.
