We’re looking for a Host to join the team at The Blues Kitchen.
The Blues Kitchen brings together delicious food, world class music and an incredible drinks menu, all under one roof. It’s built on great hospitality. Thoughtful service, proper food, and a space that feels welcoming from the moment you walk in. We focus on the details that matter, how guests are greeted, how the room flows, and how every visit feels easy, considered and worth coming back for.
As a Host, you set the tone. You’re the first impression of everything we stand for. This is a great role for someone who wants to build a career in hospitality and learn how we curate incredible guest experiences.
