Hospitality
Buckingham Palace
Permanent

Full time, 5 days out of 7, Monday to Sunday

It's preparing for events and feeling ready to deliver the highest standards.

It’s the opportunity to learn new skills. And it’s being part of an exceptional team. That is what a career with the Royal Household means.

This is the perfect place to start your hospitality career. Joining our well-established development pathway, you'll learn how to provide a hospitality service to an extraordinary level.

Working alongside experienced colleagues, you’ll deliver functions of all scales, from official lunches and receptions to state occasions. You'll also take care of guests from welcome to goodbye, making sure every person has an exceptional experience.

But it's the extensive back-of-house preparation that ensures success. The basics must always be right. That’s why we take pride in our specialist skills training so that your presentation and delivery will always be spot-on.

Teamwork is at the heart of everything we do. And so although the learning curve will be steep, we'll be with you every step of the way. What’s more, after initial training, you'll be supported to achieve an accredited hospitality qualification too.

And although your main workplace will be Buckingham Palace, you’ll also travel to other Royal residences throughout the year. Each experience will be different, providing a variety of opportunities to really grow your skills and confidence. And by living and working with supportive colleagues, you’ll quickly become a valued part of the team.

Learn more about the work of the Master of the Household’s Department.

Previous hospitality experience would be an advantage, but is by no means essential. We're more interested in your desire to tackle new challenges and develop your professional skills.

You're at your best working in a team. That means you’ll be willing to lend a hand, follow instructions and adapt quickly to changing priorities.

Although we’ll develop your skills and confidence to serve at a wide range of events, you'll need to be friendly and approachable and enjoy communicating with all kinds of people.

We aim to deliver the highest standards, and so demonstrating attention to detail or how you’ve taken pride in a job-well-done will help you to succeed.

And above all, with enthusiasm and a proactive attitude, you’ll be really keen to develop a career in hospitality.

In return, as this is a live-in role, you’ll be rewarded with a benefits package that includes:

  • Subsidised accommodation
  • All meals
  • 33 days holiday (inclusive of Bank Holidays)
  • A 15% employer contribution pension scheme
  • A range of training and development opportunities
