Be part of the Family
We’re a family business through and through – family owned since 1868, family run and with a warm family welcome for guests and team alike. Our seven hotels are unique and set in three stunning Scottish locations. Some are big, some are small, but all offer fantastic food and drink, cozy beds and a wealth of things to do.
We offer an expansive range of benefits to help you make the most of life outside of work, and we’re committed to creating an inclusive culture where everyone feels heard and valued.
We treat our guests like family, and we support our people the same way. If you’re someone who lives our values of Be Creative, Be Curious, Be Thoughtful, Be Positive and Be You, you’ll fit right in.
Crieff Hydro Hotel
Pretty much in the centre of Scotland, we’re set in a 900acre estate in stunning Perthshire. Home from home, we’ve been welcoming generations of families for 150 years. We have 215 hotel bedrooms, 55 self-catering lodges, six restaurants and over 60 onsite activities– there really is something for everyone!
About the role
Our Terrace Restaurant offers traditional Italian flavours with a modern twist. Working increasingly with local suppliers, we’re committed to consistency of production using locally sourced products. So, if you’re excited about driving change, have a flair for all things Italian, and really want to be part of a great team, looking to make your mark, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
You’ll be able to demonstrate your ability to work with high volumes and keep calm when the pressure’s on. You’ll also help train and coach the team to help them achieve their career aspirations, just as we’ll help you with yours.
