At The Kings Arms, we’re all about teamwork, warm welcomes, and a bit of Lake District magic. We’re a small but mighty crew who take pride in what we do – whether that’s serving up a cracking roast, mixing the perfect G&T, or giving guests a proper night’s sleep. You’ll get stuck in, have fun, and be part of something that feels more like a family than a workplace.
Love chatting to people? Know your way around a tray of pints? We’re after someone with energy, charm, and a big smile to join our bar and waiting team. Flexible hours, good tips, and a guaranteed laugh or two every shift.
