It's a varied and active role perfect for someone who enjoys a fast-paced team environment.

We specialise in fast placements, much like our service for immediate start jobs in the city.
Is this a temporary or permanent position?
This is initially a temporary placement, but with a strong possibility of becoming a permanent role (temp-to-perm) for candidates who excel. Many of our hospitality roles in Newport NP10 offer this pathway. It's a great way for both the employer and employee to ensure it's a good fit before committing to a permanent contract.

Shift patterns vary by venue but typically include evenings, weekends, and bank holidays. Shifts can be full-day, split, or part-time. We discuss your availability during registration to match you with roles that suit your lifestyle.

How does pay and timesheet submission work with Staffing Agency?
We operate a simple weekly pay cycle. You'll submit your timesheet at the end of your working week, which is approved by your line manager. Payment is then made directly into your bank account.
