Looking for a part-time job? Here’s everything you need to know to get started!
What is a part-time job?
A part-time job is pretty much what it sounds like—a role where you work fewer hours than a full-time position.
For anyone looking to earn some extra income, balance work with studies, or even just dip a toe into a new industry, part-time work can be the perfect fit.
At M&B, part-time roles are available across our pubs, bars, and restaurants, offering you flexibility while still making you feel part of a vibrant, supportive team.
From serving up pints to working behind the scenes in the kitchen, we have a variety of part-time positions that let you work around your schedule and enjoy the perks of working in hospitality.
How many hours is a part-time job?
There’s no strict definition, but in the UK, part-time work generally means working less than 30 hours a week. This can vary based on the needs of the role and your availability.
At M&B, we understand that flexibility is key, so you’ll find part-time shifts that fit around your life.
Whether you're looking to work weekends, a few evenings a week, or any mix that fits your routine, we’re happy to work with you to create a schedule that makes sense for both you and the team.
