* Monitor inventory, orders, and operational matters;
* Guest contact and resolving any problems;
* Helping out on the floor and behind the bar when necessary;
Together with the team, ensure an evening that guests will want to come back for.

So, you are not someone who manages from the office all evening. You are right in the middle of the business, know your team, and know what is happening on the floor.

Who are you?

We are primarily looking for someone who fits in at Mr Smith’s Loft.

You:

Have experience in the hospitality industry and preferably experience in a managerial position;
* Have a passion for cocktails, food, and hospitality;
* Gets energy from a busy evening and a full house;
Enjoys working with a young team;
Knows how to motivate and engage people;
Are social, enthusiastic, and not afraid to take responsibility;
* Maintain an overview when the pace picks up;
* Thinks in solutions and sees work that needs to be done;
Have a sense of atmosphere and guest experience;
You are flexible and have no problem working in the evenings and on weekends.

Experience with cocktails is a big plus. You don't have to be a professional bartender, but if you get excited by a good cocktail menu and are eager to learn more about cocktails, spirits, and food pairing, that would make us happy.

You get the space to build

We are not looking for someone who merely executes our existing working methods.

We want someone who says:

This could be better.
We can make this more fun.
I think we should give this a try.

You will have the opportunity to contribute your ideas regarding the business, the team, the service, and the guest experience. We are continuously working on improving and innovating, and we particularly enjoy it when you are an active part of that.

What do we offer?

A responsible and varied position within a vibrant hospitality establishment in the heart of Groningen;
An enthusiastic and young team;
* Plenty of room for personal initiative and ideas;
* An informal work atmosphere where hard work and fun go hand in hand;
Good employment conditions commensurate with your experience and responsibility;
* Tip on top of your salary;
Opportunities to further develop yourself within hospitality, cocktails, and leadership;
And of course: working at a place where it is regularly just really fun.

Does this sound like something for you?

Then we would like to get to know you.

Stuur ons je cv naar info@mrsmiths.nl en vertel vooral ook waarom jij denkt dat Mr Smith’s Loft bij jou past.
