Overview
Location: Located in the picturesque village of Amberley in the West Sussex countryside, Amberley Castle is a unique luxury hotel steeped in over 900 years of history. With 4 AA red stars, 3 AA rosettes, and a member of Relais & Châteaux, Amberley Castle offers our team the chance to work in a castle with quality and style.
SERVICE CHARGE – We pay our team service charge each month. This service charge goes into one pot, and 100% of that service charge is distributed amongst all the team at the hotel. Every penny received is paid out to the team. Service charge can be in the region of £300 a month (close to £3,600 per year) for a full-time employee.
The hotel may also be able to offer off-site staff accommodation in our 2 staff houses (within walking distance to the hotel) to help newer members of the team relocate and settle into life at the hotel and local area.
