Head Waiter

Part of the MJMK group, Lisboeta, literally meaning ‘a person from Lisbon’, celebrates the lifestyle, tradition, and emotion of belonging. The restaurant is Chef Patron Nuno Mendes’ love letter to Lisbon, the city he grew up in and the place he calls home. We opened Lisboeta in the Spring of 2022 to critical acclaim and as the restaurant continues its success, we’re looking for a Head Waiter to join the team, who will oversee the guest experience, from the moment they sit down, right through to the end of their meal.

As a Head Waiter at Lisboeta, we can offer you:

· Up to £16 per hour, dependent on your experience, inclusive of service charge.

· 25% discount across all MJMK restaurants.

· Up to £500 team referral bonus.

· Opportunity to develop your career with MJMK as we expand.

· Mental health and well-being assistance with Hospitality Action who can offer free advice and counselling if you’re struggling at work or at home.

· Free meals while on shift.

· Enhanced maternity and paternity pay, after your first year with us.

· An extra day’s holiday every year you’re with us.

· An enhanced pension plan and the opportunity to take a sabbatical for a month, with two weeks paid by MJMK, after you’ve worked with us for 5 years.

A Lisboeta Head Waiter is:

· A team-player. We believe that our people are stronger together and support each other, no matter what department they work in.

· Passionate and knowledgeable about food, wine and hospitality.

· Able to exceed guests’ expectations, by following Lisboeta Service Steps and bringing their own personality to the guest journey.

· Responsible for their knowledge and learning in their job role, always looking to consistently be the best.

· Able to work with integrity, excellent attention to detail and strong communication skills.

We’d love to hear from you if you’re an experienced Head Waiter and you’re up for a new challenge and the opportunity to work alongside Nuno Mendes. Bem-vindo à nossa casa; welcome to our home.
