Here at The Standard, we take a slightly different approach to our people and look far and wide for individuals that bring a unique perspective with them to our team (not a 5 page CV). We do not ask you to conform, read from a script or follow the rules (ok sometimes there are rules) but not when it comes down to you being able to express yourself or celebrate your individuality.

At the heart of our hotels are of course of people who through their vibrancy and energy bring our properties to life. We are now seeking to cast a team of diverse and dynamic individuals that will capture the very essence of the Standard London to join our team as a F&B Receiving & Storeroom Supervisor.

You will work closely both the purchasing and back of house managers and be responsible for coordinating orders, receiving delivers and distributing goods on behalf of our departmental teams to ensure that par stock levels are maintained across the business. With a meticulous eye for detail you never miss a thing, ensuring that par stock levels are maintained within the general store and that deliveries are inspected, meet standards and that all food safety controls are managed. As a guardian of our general stores, you’ll be responsible for implementing a host of stock and rotation control measures and play a pivotal role in the monthly stocktake and management of our inventory; that is far from anything but Standard!

Most importantly you will ensure you and your team adopt a flexible and hands-on approach with superior communication and negotiation skills to manage a host of supplier relationships on behalf of the business. So it goes without saying that you will need to be highly social, upbeat and friendly; confident and can handle pressure well; thrive in a high volume, high energy environment and can manage relationships both suppliers and your colleagues with ease.
