About the Role
We're Sam Harrison and Fanny Stocker — founders of Sam's Riverside in Hammersmith and Sam's Waterside in Brentford, two Michelin Guide-listed brasseries in West London. Sam works on the floor most days, leading by example because we believe in leading from the front. Our team members aren't just employees; they're part of our family. We're a small, close-knit group and we only work with the right people, investing in them properly.
We are passionate about hospitality and believe it should always be a joy — both for our guests and for the people delivering it. If you share this belief and want to be part of a team that takes its craft seriously while having fun, we'd love to hear from you.
We are looking for front of house staff — waiters, waitresses, and bar staff — who love hospitality and take pride in looking after people. Whether you are highly experienced and ready for a new home, or earlier in your career with the right attitude and genuine passion for the industry, we want to hear from you.
What we cannot teach is warmth, work ethic, and genuine pride in the job. If you have those qualities, we can build the rest together.
What We Offer
Competitive salary plus tronc (tips)
Full training and ongoing development from day one
Staff meals on every shift
50% staff discount across all Sam's venues
A family environment where you are known, valued, and looked after
Real opportunities to progress within the group
Experience
Experience level is flexible; we welcome both highly experienced candidates and those earlier in their careers with the right attitude and passion for hospitality.
