Be the first smile guests see - and the one they remember.

At The Kennels - our beautifully crafted private members’ club at the heart of the Goodwood Estate - we don’t just welcome guests. We create exceptional first impressions. We’re looking for a permanent Receptionist to join the team, bringing warmth, professionalism and a genuine love of great service.

What you’ll be doing

  • Providing a warm, confident welcome to all members and guests
  • Managing enquiries, bookings and calls efficiently and professionally
  • Meeting, greeting, seating and hosting guests during service

  • Developing a thorough understanding of how The Kennels operates – including restaurant flow, menus, food and wine

  • Occasionally assisting in other areas of Goodwood when needed

You’ll thrive here if you…

  • Have a genuine passion for great service
  • Bring a positive, friendly, “can‑do” approach
  • Are naturally organised with strong attention to detail
  • Take responsibility for your work and enjoy being proactive
  • Communicate clearly and confidently
  • Enjoy working in a fast‑paced, guest‑focused environment
  • Love adding a little sense of fun to each day
  • Can reliably travel to our beautiful countryside location

What you’ll need

  • Confidence using Microsoft Office and Outlook
  • Experience in a similar customer‑facing role (hospitality, reception or member‑focused environments are all beneficial)
  • Own or reliable transport
