Job Description
About Us
Ministry of Sound opened in 1991 in a disused bus garage in a forgotten corner of South London. It was the first nightclub in the UK to have a 24-hour licence, didn’t serve alcohol and featured an earth-shaking sound system in a specially constructed dance box.
We went on to become the world’s largest independent record company and stage giant dance events, including one for 50,000 people at the Millennium Dome. We were pioneers in electronic music and have a history of taking risks, innovation, and colourful and creative marketing.
As a business we don’t take ourselves too seriously, like to laugh and have fun, but we have high standards, a relentless attention to detail and the continuous improvement of our product, and we work hard as a team.
We hate cliché, doing things the way others do and continuously seek to differentiate our brands and products almost as a point of pride.
Thirty years later we opened The Ministry, a workspace run as a member’s club, in a 50,000 sq. ft Victorian warehouse in SE1. The design is relaxed but functional with a bar, opening windows, an outside courtyard and plenty of space to sit, relax, work and socialise – everything you wouldn’t expect to find in a standard office.
There’s great home cooked F&B, a state-of-the-art gym and fitness studio with daily classes, together with a cultural and business events programme. The building has its own events and conference space and we’re about to introduce our own premium range of candles, diffusers, soaps, and other body care products.
We believe this is the office of the future, members love it and it has been a big success.
We plan to take this a stage further with the opening of our second site at Westfield White City in early 2024. Members will access the office via an urban garden before ascending an escalator to a bar and deli with a five-metre floor to ceiling height.
In addition to a private gym for members, the workspace will include wellness studios, a bakery, rooftop bar and restaurant, juice bar and champagne and doughnut bar, all public facing. There will be an events and conference facility and multiple other products and amenities not typically associated with a workspace.
The Ministry Shepherd’s Bush will be revolutionary in its scope and offering and needs a world class marketing execution.
The Role
We are seeking a hospitality professional that has a track record of running operations within a successful casual F&B concept.
You will be a leader who will shape the Ministry Deli, overseeing food service, coffee and most importantly, service.
You will have motivation, energy and attention to detail at the forefront of everything you do.
You will demand an organised, impeccably clean and well-presented environment from your team constantly.
You will partner with our Bar Manager and Head Chef to ensure our F&B offering is coherent and creative.
You will work with our team, our suppliers, and our members to ensure that the Deli experience is so good that our members will never question getting their coffee, lunch and snacks from anywhere else.
You will be business minded, understand budgets, stock management and quality control.
This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who wants to grow professionally and personally, shaping the future of food and beverage at the Ministry – the best workspace in the world.
A capacity for hard work, natural ability to get on with people, a passion for excellent food and coffee and a sense of humour are a must.
