The Programmes: 

Front of House (FOH) Program – Level 2 Hospitality Team Member
Apprentices have the chance to experience all aspects of the restaurant floor, including food and beverage service and wines.

Back of House (BOH) Program – Level 2 Commis Chef
Apprentices will have the chance to experience, consider & value each section within the kitchen.

Apprentices on both programs will spend two months training at six venues across the business so they can discover where their passion truly lies, whether that be at fast-paced Taiwanese BAO or two Michelin-starred Kitchen Table.

Restaurants involved include Trishna, Gymkhana, Brigadiers, Hoppers, Sabor, Kitchen Table, Lyle’s, Berenjak, BiBi, The Cadogan Arms, The George, Speedboat Bar & BAO!

“Earn While You Learn”

The program is made up of a mix of on & off the job training! 

Every 12 weeks, the apprentices will meet with their training manager, who will guide them through the whole apprenticeship and end of point assessment.

We'll be running dine outs & supplier trips for both FOH & BOH, giving an opportunity for all apprentices to dine, taste and experience a variety of brands across the group! 

Candidates who complete their apprenticeship with us will have the opportunity to join us in a full-time role or move on to a higher level apprenticeship!
