Job Description
Food & Beverage Manager - Eden Locke, Edinburgh
We are looking for a Food & Beverage Manager to join the team at Eden Locke, Edinburgh.
Our F&B space is at the heart of the hotel. By day, it is a relaxed coffee shop serving our guests, local community and visitors. As the day moves on, it transforms into a welcoming wine and cocktail bar.
We are looking for someone who enjoys being hands on, leading from the front and working closely with their team. You will play a key role in shaping the F&B experience while working closely with the hotel team to create a seamless experience for our guests.
About The Job
As F&B Manager, you will be responsible for the day to day operation and overall performance of our F&B offering.
This is a hands on role. You will be on the floor, working alongside your team, supporting service, speaking with guests and making sure everything runs smoothly. You will also take ownership of the commercial side of the operation, including budgets, stock, costs and profitability.
You will work closely with the wider hotel team, supporting events, activations and the overall guest experience. We are a collaborative environment, so communication and teamwork are a big part of the role.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
