Bar and Restaurant Supervisor
Bar \& Restaurant SupervisorKarma Lake of Menteith \| Aberfoyle, Stirlingshire
We’re looking for someone who knows that great hospitality is about more than getting a drink from A to B.
At Karma Lake of Menteith, our bar and restaurant are at the heart of what we do — from a perfectly poured pint after a day exploring the Trossachs, to a dram by the fire, a busy wedding, or dinner overlooking the loch.
We’re looking for a Bar \& Restaurant Supervisor to help lead the team, keep service running smoothly and, most importantly, make sure our guests have a bloody good time while they’re here.
What you'll be doing
- Leading from the front during service and being the person the team can rely on.
- Helping to create a relaxed, warm and genuinely Scottish hospitality experience.
- Supervising the bar and restaurant team, keeping standards high without taking ourselves too seriously.
- Making sure guests are looked after from their first drink to their last coffee.
- Knowing your way around a bar — from a perfectly poured pint to helping a guest choose the right whisky.
- Keeping an eye on stock, ordering, wastage and those mysterious bottles that always seem to disappear.
- Working closely with the kitchen to make sure food and drinks arrive when they should.
- Supporting weddings, private events and all the wonderfully unpredictable things that happen in a hotel.
- Training and coaching the team so they become better at what they do.
- Dealing with guest questions, requests and the occasional problem with calmness, humour and common sense.
- Keeping the bar and restaurant clean, organised and ready for whatever the day throws at us.
- Helping us find ways to make the operation better, smarter and more commercially successful.
You don't need to have worked in a five\-star hotel, but you do need to understand hospitality.
We're looking for someone who:
- Has previous experience in a bar, restaurant or hotel environment.
- Is confident supervising a team and isn't afraid to get stuck in when things get busy.
- Can lead by example without barking orders from behind a clipboard.
- Has great customer service instincts and genuinely enjoys talking to people.
- Is commercially aware and understands that good hospitality and good business go hand in hand.
- Can handle a busy service without losing their head — or their sense of humour.
- Is comfortable using EPOS systems and handling cash.
- Has an interest in drinks, whisky, cocktails, coffee or food — preferably all of the above!
- Takes pride in standards, presentation and the little details guests notice.
- Is flexible and happy to work evenings, weekends and the occasional festive shift when everyone else is eating mince pies.
We're not trying to be another beige hotel where the biggest excitement of the day is changing the breakfast buffet.
We want Karma Lake of Menteith to be somewhere people actually want to come and spend time, whether they're staying with us, enjoying dinner, having a drink or simply escaping to the lake for a while.
That means we're looking for people with personality.
People who notice things.
People who care about hospitality.
And people who aren't afraid to say, "I think we could do this better."
You'll have plenty of opportunity to bring your own ideas to the role, work with the management team and help shape what our bar and restaurant become next.
