Wentbridge House is an independently owned, four-star country house hotel set in 20 acres of gardens and grounds in the village of Wentbridge, West Yorkshire.
With 41 individually designed bedrooms, our 2 AA Rosette Restaurant and Brasserie, bars, private dining and a busy calendar of weddings and events, food and hospitality are at the heart of what we do.
We are looking for a Food & Beverage Supervisor to join our friendly and experienced team, with both full-time and part-time hours available.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys being in the middle of service, looking after guests, supporting the team and making sure everything runs as it should. You will help lead services across our Restaurant, Brasserie, bars and events, setting the pace and the standard while keeping the atmosphere warm and welcoming.
Great hospitality at Wentbridge is about more than getting the technical details right. We want our guests to feel genuinely looked after, and we are looking for someone who notices the little things, enjoys working with people and takes pride in doing things properly.

Working closely with our Food & Beverage Managers and kitchen team, you will:
- Help lead and organise the team during food and beverage service

- Maintain high standards of presentation, cleanliness and attention to detail
- Deal positively and professionally with guest requests or issues
- Support opening and closing procedures, payments and cash handling
