The Peninsula London is excited to announce we are seeking an ambitious Assistant Bar Manager to join the team within our Brooklands Bar. This role will be accountable for ensuring the highest levels of food and beverage service while proactively managing team engagement to create the finest guest experience.

A sleek space showcasing innovative cocktails, as well as striking views across London's skyline, Brooklands Bar makes an unforgettable day-to-night rooftop destination.
