Surrey
£42,000 + bonus up to 10%

About the Setting
This role is based at one of the UK's most iconic visitor destinations—an historic garden attracting over a million guests each year and home to one of the world's largest and most diverse plant collections.
The site offers seven unique catering outlets, ranging from a bustling Food Hall and café to mobile units and relaxed family dining spaces.

Recruit, train, and develop team members
What We Offer

Up to 10% bonus (50% company performance, 50% site performance)
A unique working environment set within extraordinary gardens
The chance to make a real impact at one of the UK's most visited cultural attractions
