Food and Beverage Assistant

The Burn is a 20-bedroom Mansion House, Listed Grade B belonging to Goodenough College. The estate consists of a beautiful woodland oasis, with the spectacular North Esk river running through a natural landscape. Although it operates mainly as an academic retreat for mostly international and Scottish university post-graduates, it is also hired out for private, family celebrations and offered as holiday accommodation.

The Burn is seeking a Food and Beverage Assistant who will work with the front of house and the kitchen teams, assisting in setting up breakfast, lunch, and supper service, as well as helping in The Burn’s Flower Room Bar.

This is a varied, sleeves-rolled-up role, working across all areas of food and beverage service. A small amount of food preparation is expected, mainly serving plated menu choices, afternoon tea, cake and breakfasts, so some knowledge of food safety would be advantageous although all necessary training will be given. You should be happy in a front of house role, meeting and greeting guests/diners who may be experiencing their first ever visit to Scotland.

To apply, please submit your CV, and a short covering letter, stating your motivation for applying and how you meet the essential criteria in the job description and person specification, to: Jan Clarke The Bursar at jan.clarke@goodenough.ac.uk  with the subject line of: “F&B Assistant.”

We are conducting a rolling recruitment and interview programme, so an early application is recommended.

Applicants are encouraged to contact the Bursar or Chef for further information.
