Hi, I'm Varsha Odedra,
Recruitment Manager
What area do you recruit for?
I look after a wide stretch of the South East, covering London, Essex, Kent, Surrey, Hertfordshire, Sussex, and surrounding counties. From busy city pubs to coastal escapes and countryside favourites, I help find the right people to keep them thriving.
What do you love about your job?
For me, recruitment is about more than filling a vacancy, it’s about matching the right personality, skills, and ambition to the right role. I love supporting candidates through what can feel like a big career step, making the process straightforward and ensuring they feel confident every step of the way.
Top tips when applying for a job with us?
1. Keep your most recent role right at the top of your CV.
2. Highlight your proudest achievements, numbers and examples really stand out.
3. Show us why you want the role and what excites you about working with our brand.
Top Tips
Prepare great examples for your interview
Be ready with two or three stories that highlight how you've supported guests, solved problems, or gone the extra mile. Use clear examples to show patience, teamwork, and initiative, even from non-hospitality roles. Specific wins help employers picture you delivering the same standard for their guests.
Show you embrace change and challenge
High-volume settings move fast, so embrace change, variety, and teamwork. Show you're open to different shifts, tasks, and learning new systems or service styles. A positive, can-do attitude often matters more than experience so lean into growth.
Let your personality shine
Hospitality is a people-first industry, so let your energy and personality shine. Greet confidently and keep your tone friendly and positive. Employers notice genuine enthusiasm, be yourself and show your passion.
