About the Role: Responsibilities, Skills, and Requirements
Ever wondered what it’s like to start your hospitality journey at one of the UAE’s leading holding groups? We’re on the lookout for energetic, detail-oriented Freshers ready to shine as Stewards & Waiters at our Ruwais, Abu Dhabi locations. Whether you’re just stepping into the workforce or eager for a fresh chapter in a vibrant industry, here’s your opportunity to become part of a recognized company—right when we need new talent most.
About the Company
At our Group, we’re more than just a collection of businesses—we’re a family that serves thousands daily across hospitality, catering, and services in the UAE. Fast-paced, diverse, and always moving, our teams thrive on collaboration and genuine support. You’ll find managers who appreciate a clever suggestion (even if it comes during a busy lunch rush) and teammates who’ll teach you to master the perfect coffee pour or make you feel at home, even if you’re far from it.
With multiple brands and venues, every day brings something new—one week you’re helping greet conference guests, the next solving a kitchen puzzle with your steward crew. Fridays off? Not here—we rotate, so everyone gets their downtime. And yes, breakfast fruit is as fresh as rumored!
