Beef and  Brew is about to open its second site, this time in Hackney in a pub site. It’s a restaurant pub, so we’re looking for a team that can do justice to both: a restaurant, with a great bar, stocked with interesting beer, wine and cocktails.
Our food menu will evolve to suit the environment. We’ll continue to have a high quality menu, with a focus on affordable steaks, but there will be more sides, bar snacks and the odd seafood dish too.
We want a great working environment, with a confident, talented and knowledgeable team. Work should be fun, as well as serious. We’re not fans of the old school military environment; we want a self-motivated, interested group that can deliver a great service to our customers.
We will offer you:
- A competitive salary and company benefits.
- Excellent learning and development opportunities.
- Career progression within a growing business.
- Sensible hours.
