Food & Beverage Duty Manager
Dalhousie Castle
Dalhousie Castle has entered an exciting new chapter. Following an extensive refurbishment and the reopening of the hotel six months ago, we are now looking for an enthusiastic and driven Food & Beverage Duty Manager to join our leadership team and help shape the next stage of our journey.
With our newly refurbished hotel, evolving Food & Beverage offering and ambitious plans for the future, this is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants to make their mark.

You'll play an important role in creating the culture we want to build at Dalhousie Castle, one where our team feel supported, motivated and proud of the service they deliver.
Working closely with the wider F&B leadership team, you will:

• Work closely with the wider hotel team to deliver a seamless guest experience.
• Be confident dealing with guest feedback, queries and operational challenges.
• Identify opportunities to improve our service, processes and overall operation.
• Lead by example and be prepared to get involved wherever needed.

About You
We're looking for someone who is passionate about hospitality, enjoys working with people and wants to be part of building something special.
You may already be working as a Duty Manager, Assistant Manager, Supervisor or in a similar F&B leadership role and be ready for your next challenge.
You'll ideally have:

• Previous experience within a busy Food & Beverage environment.
• Strong leadership and people-management skills.
• A genuine passion for delivering great guest experiences.
• The ability to motivate, coach and develop a team.
• A positive, proactive and hands-on approach.

Why Dalhousie Castle?
This is a particularly exciting time to join us.
Six months into our new chapter, we are continuing to establish and develop our Food & Beverage operation following the Castle's extensive refurbishment. We're looking for someone who will help us continually improve, develop our team and evolve what we offer our guests.
You'll become part of the leadership team at a truly unique Scottish destination, with the opportunity to make a visible impact on our people, our operation and our guest experience.
