Recruitment Partner
Hi, I’m Emily! I’ve been with Mitchells & Butlers since 2018 and recruit across the North Midlands and North West for a range of brilliant brands including Vintage Inns, Toby Carvery, Ego, and Sizzling Pub & Grill.
I love working at M&B because the people genuinely make it a fantastic place to be (and the 33% discount definitely doesn’t hurt!). Recruitment is my passion — I enjoy getting to know each person I speak to and finding the perfect match between candidate and role. It really does feel like being a job matchmaker, and there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing someone thrive in their next step.
Top Tips
Show you embrace change and challenge
High-volume settings move fast, so embrace change, variety, and teamwork. Show you're open to changing things up with alternative tasks, and learning new systems or adapting budgets. A positive, can-do attitude often matters more than experience so lean into growth.
Prepare great examples for your interview
Be ready with two or three stories that highlight how you've supported guests, solved problems, or developed your team. Use clear examples to show patience, teamwork, and initiative, even from non-hospitality roles. Specific wins help us picture you delivering the same standard for your guests.
Let your personality shine
Hospitality is a people-first industry, so let your energy and personality shine. Greet confidently and keep your tone friendly and positive. We notice genuine enthusiasm, be yourself and show your passion.
