ROLE PURPOSE

Our Brewers are what sets us apart from all the other brands, they are our USP. As a Brewer at B&K you’ll fully engage with your local community, including your team, pushing your own-brewed beer as paramount to any other. But first, you’ll make sure the quality is spot-on, from recipe design, ingredient ordering and audits and finally brewing the beer. The role of a Brewer at B&K is different to most, as you’ll be here when the Brewpub is open, being a focal point for all our guests.

As a Brewer you’ll be in control of stock and ordering of ingredients, including managing your budgets based on company specification, you’ll also be a complete beer-nerd who loves sharing their passion, encouraging your team and guests to try the beer you’ve produced. You’ll naturally be a people person, who is bubbly, active and communicative, who offers support and guidance in management meetings, setting clear goals for your team. You’ll be confident in delivering educational experiences in the world of beer & brewing.

Our Brewers champion our core Brewing Happiness Values:

People First – We are in the People industry; we just so happen to serve food & drinks.

Passion – We are passionate about great people, great beer, great food & great times

Fun – People come to the Brewpub to have fun, this starts with our teams

Integrity – We focus on the CAN do, not on the can’t

 

 

THE INDUCTION

Your Day One will be with a member of the People Team, who will guide you through the first steps of becoming a part of B&K. You’ll talk through the first 4 weeks, including a Learning Path via the B&K Learning Hub for your role (which includes nationally recognised Food Safety training). There will be around two weeks of training off-site, with one of our Senior Brewers in their Brewpub, where you’ll be fully immersed in our brand and understanding the basics and specifications. The Senior Brewer will become your buddy, who will visit your Brewpub to assist in the systems training.

We’ll check in with you on Week 4, 9 and 15 with a BrewChat, which is an opportunity to speak with your General Manager about your progress and aspirations.

But why Brewhouse & Kitchen?

Founded in 2013, by co-founders Kris & Simon, B&K is a blend of Great British Pubs with US-inspired hospitality and beer culture. We have open fires, cask ales and Sunday Roasts – but we also have quirky industrial décor, an eclectic range of guest beers and home-style BBQ dishes.

We are unique whereby we brew beer on-site, delivering an experience to the senses with the smells, sights and tastes. All happening whilst the Brewpubs are open for business, full of our team and guests. There’s not many places where you can drink a beer and watch it be created in front of your eyes too.

B&K inspires our teams by living by the line “people always remember how you make them feel”, we hold ourselves to this daily, Brewing Happiness wherever we can. We brew great beer and great experiences, every single day.
