    About Us Let’s be honest: there are thousands of pubs in London, but there’s only one De Hems. Tucked away in the vibrant heart of Soho, we are London’s premier Dutch pub. We’ve got a rich history (we were a meeting place for the Dutch resistance in WWII!), an incredible selection of craft beers, and an atmosphere that’s always buzzing. We don't just serve pints; we serve good times. And right now, we need some awesome people to help us pour them. What You’ll Be Doing Being the Face of the Pub: Greeting regulars, welcoming tourists, and making everyone feel like they’ve just walked into a cozy Amsterdam bar. The Art of the Perfect Pour: Mastering the perfect two-finger head on a Dutch pilsner (yes, it’s a science, and yes, we will teach you). Keeping the Energy High: Working hard during busy Soho shifts, laughing with your team, and ensuring the vibe is always immaculate. Mastering the Menu: Explaining the difference between our top-tier drafts and recommending the perfect plate of bitterballen to go with them. Who You Are A Natural People Person: You’ve got banter, a warm smile, and you genuinely enjoy chatting with people from all walks of life. A Team Player: You thrive in a fast-paced environment and have a "we're all in this together" attitude. Reliable & Energetic: You bring great energy to every shift and aren't afraid of a busy Friday night rush. Experience? It’s a bonus, but not a dealbreaker. If you have the right attitude, we can teach you the rest. (Must be 18+ to serve alcohol). What’s In It For You? Competitive Pay + Great Tips: Because your hard work deserves to be rewarded. Flexible Shifts: We offer a mix of days, nights, and weekends to fit your lifestyle. Epic Staff Discounts: Major discounts on food and drinks across our network (perfect for your days off). Career Growth: Want to learn the ropes of pub management? We love promoting from within.
