As a Full Time Conference & Events Porter at Norton House Hotel & Spa you will be required to work a mixture of shifts to include earlies from 7am to 3.30pm, or lates from 2.30pm - 11pm/Midnight and weekends as these tend to be the busiest days.

You will support the Conference & Banqueting team with functions, conferences, private dining and of course the all important weddings, helping to ensure everything is set up and ready in advance, that the event details are checked and double checked and that everything runs smoothly.

• You’ll be a team player with bags of enthusiasm and a big smile
• You’ll take pride in your appearance, and proud to be the face of Hand Picked
• You’ll be a stickler for hygiene and be able to demonstrate best practice
