We’re looking for Café & Bar Assistants to join the theatre Café & Bar team!
If you have good customer service skills and enjoy working with the public, then we look forward to hearing from you. Experience of working in a café or bar is desirable, but not essential.
We are particularly looking for people to work:
You don’t need to have worked in a theatre before, but you should have experience of working with people or serving customers.
You would be contracted on a ‘zero hours’ contract to allow for flexibility. Hours will vary from week to week depending on the start and running times of performances or activity.
The New Wolsey Theatre Café & Bar is a stunningly decorated independent venue set over two floors with plenty of comfortable seating, free Wi-Fi and a relaxed atmosphere. It’s a unique and spacious place with step-free access and a lift to the first floor.
We offer a fabulous range of locally-roasted coffee as well as a food menu of light bites including toasties, sausage rolls, and delicious cakes and bakes.
We have a number of staff benefits including complimentary tickets for in-house shows, invitations to opening nights, discounted tickets on visiting shows and of course, a discount in our Café & Bar!
We’d love applications from people of all backgrounds, especially from Black, Asian and ethnically diverse backgrounds, those who identify as deaf and disabled people, neurodivergent people, members of the LGBTQIA+ community and those from lower socio-economic backgrounds. We are up for exploring support and development needs and will make reasonable adjustments to enable applicants to participate in the selection process, and for the successful applicant to carry out their role
If you need us to make any adjustments to allow you to fully participate, would like an informal and confidential discussion about the position, or if you would like the candidate pack in different accessible formats please contact Lucy Parker lparker@wolseytheatre.co.uk
The deadline for applications is 9am on Monday 14th October 2024.
Interviews will be held on Monday 21st October 2024. We will be flexible with interview times as much as possible.
We will reimburse reasonable travel expenses if you are invited to attend an interview
