The Steward will support the kitchen and back-of-house teams during the pre-opening of The St. Regis London. Responsibilities typically include washing and sanitising dishes, cookware and kitchen equipment, maintaining clean storage and preparation areas, handling waste safely, replenishing supplies, and following food safety, hygiene and health-and-safety procedures. Candidates should be reliable, physically fit, organised and comfortable working in a fast-paced hospitality environment.
