Catering
Buckingham Palace
Permanent
£16,955.45 per annum. This role has the option to live-in, for which there will be a salary adjustment.
Full time, 5 days out of 7, Monday to Sunday

It's knowing everything is in place ahead of the lunch time rush.

It’s the collaboration and the community spirit. And it’s helping to deliver excellent service in incredible surroundings. This is what makes working for the Royal Household so different.

Joining our staff restaurant team, you'll work front-of-house to serve staff meals and replenish stock. You'll also work in the staff café, preparing hot drinks and snacks, taking payments and providing a friendly and helpful service to all your customers.

You'll clean equipment and assist with food preparation and display, helping to make sure everything is ready for daily service.

And whether you’re based in Buckingham Palace or, when required, travelling to another Royal residence, you’ll provide exceptional service every day.

You might already have some relevant customer service or catering experience, but it's not essential as our excellent training will provide you with all the skills you need.

Good communication and a desire to deliver fantastic customer service are what really counts.

You’re a natural team player, happy to get involved, use initiative and work with your colleagues to achieve a smooth daily service.

You might already have a good working knowledge of Food Hygiene and Safety, but if not we'll organise training for you.

Above all, you're committed to a career in catering, keen to develop your skills and gain experience in an exceptional environment.

You will be rewarded with a comprehensive benefits package, including 33 days holiday (inclusive of Bank Holidays), a 15% employer contribution pension scheme (with the option for flexibility - to increase contributions or draw down as salary), all meals provided, training and development, as well as a range of recreational facilities. In addition, as this is a live-in role, you will be provided with accommodation, for which your salary will be adjusted.
