Head Host/Hostess

£17.21 per hour

Big Mamma Group is an Italian restaurant company founded in 2015 by Tigrane Seydoux and Victor Lugger with one simple dream: changing people's lives with pizza.

In the UK & Ireland, that dream lives in 9 restaurants across 4 cities: Gloria, Ave Mario, Circolo Popolare, Barbarella, Carlotta and Jacuzzi in London, Circolo Popolare in Manchester, La Bellezza in Birmingham, and Gloria in Dublin.

Every plate is 100% homemade, every space is jaw-dropping, and every table gets a huge smile at a fair price.

We believe hospitality is a real career, and we're on the hunt for talents ready to grow with us and bring their own crazy love for Italian food to the Squadra.

We’re now looking for a passionate Head Host/Hostess to join our team!

As part of the Big Mamma Floor team, your mission will be to:

  • Greet and seat guests, allocate tables and accommodate walk-ins

  • Master our bookings system and ensure every enquiry is managed efficiently

  • Solve problems proactively when bookings or service don’t go as planned

  • Work closely with the Reception Supervisor and support onboarding and training the host team

  • Maintain cleanliness, organisation and health & safety standards across the floor

  • Create memorable moments for guests with a warm, friendly and professional attitude

About You

The ideal candidate can demonstrate:

  • Big smile and passion for Italian food

  • High energy, proactive attitude and team spirit

  • Excellent customer service, leadership and communication skills

  • Knowledge of online booking systems ( SevenRooms is a bonus )

  • Previous experience as a Head Host/Hostess in a busy restaurant

  • Flexible availability, including evenings and weekends

Our offer to you

  • Permanent, full-time role: £17.21/hour total package (base pay + tronc)

  • Daily staff meals served family-style

  • 15% employee discount in all UK & Ireland restaurants

  • £500 referral bonus for recommending a friend, T&Cs apply

  • Mental health & wellbeing support

  • Earned Wage Access - unlock your pay between paydays

  • Regular training & career growth opportunities

  • International mobility with opportunities to work across the group
