At Greene King, our front-of-house teams are the heart of every visit, and we're always on the lookout for friendly, enthusiastic people to join them.

Bar & Waiting Team

We may be famous for our beer, but working in bar and waiting is about so much more than pulling pints and carrying plates.

Whether you’re behind the bar or on the floor, you’ll bring the personality, energy and service that makes every visit one to remember.
