At Wahaca we’re all about fresh Mexican food, great people and a little bit of sunshine in every shift. Everything we do is rooted in our founders’ values – taking pride in what we do, staying humble, choosing integrity, having fun and thinking positively.

* Demonstrate passion for perfectly crafted cocktails made to our specs using fresh ingredients
People do their best work when they feel looked after – and when our teams thrive, so do our guests. That’s why we care just as much about creating a supportive, inclusive place to work as we do about the food we serve – and why we offer a range of great benefits:

* Our very own Masterchef and Cocktail competitions
* Unwind at one of our many events across the year such as WOW Fest!
* Celebrate your milestones with a flight to Mexico at 2 years, and a 4‑week sabbatical at 5 years
Wahaca was founded by Thomasina Miers and Mark Selby, inspired by a love of the vibrant food of Mexico and a mission to bring its bold flavours to the UK – using great British produce and ingredients sourced with care.
Experience is welcome – but attitude is everything.
If you believe hospitality is about how you make people feel, we want to meet you.
