About the role
It’s the perfect place to start your hospitality career
It’s the community spirit. And it’s working with a shared and unique purpose. This is what makes working for the Royal Household so different.
In this role, you’ll join a close knit and committed team who deliver our staff catering to the highest standard.
You’ll assist with food preparation and displays, and maintain a clean environment, all of which will help ensure everything is ready for a busy daily service.
During service times, you’ll work front-of-house to serve up meals and replenish stock.
You’ll also work in the staff café, where you’ll prepare hot drinks and snacks, providing a friendly and helpful service to all your customers.
And whether you’re based in Buckingham Palace or, travelling to other locations, you’ll provide exceptional service every day.
About you
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.
This role will be based in London, and will involve travelling to other Royal residences. In return you can look forward to working in a unique and stimulating work environment, and 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) and meals on duty. The role also offers the option to live-in with all meals provided (for which there is a salary adjustment). Training and development is encouraged and you will have access to a range of recreational facilities.
