Restaurant Floor Manager/Assistant Manager
We are proud to be recognized as one of the best places to work in Hospitality. Looking after people is at the core of what we do, and we work hard to make life at Dishoom the best it can be. Since 2010, our restaurants have celebrated the Irani cafes and the food and drink of Bombay. We have Dishoom Cafes across London, Edinburgh, Manchester, and Birmingham. Our Permit Rooms are in Brighton and Cambridge, with our newest Bar-Cafe opening in Oxford later this year. Additionally, we have kitchens across London to ensure our guests can enjoy our food at home.
As well as managing busy sites with large teams, we also engage in initiatives like planting trees, tying Rakhis with guests, and helping to feed children through Meal for a Meal. Since January 2024, we have donated 20 million meals, and as a Dishoomwalle, you contribute 55 meals per shift.
We are opening our new Permit Room Bar-Cafe this Autumn in Oxford. Our Permit Rooms are dedicated to excellent food, quality drinks, great music, and good cheer. We recently won top spot for Best Cocktails in the Bravo awards 2024.
