Join us at Poco!
Are you passionate about high quality food and service? Like to work in a team? Fancy working with the best view in town?
At Poco Pizza, we take pride in our warm, welcoming, and family-run restaurant environment. Our passion for continual improvement, excellent customer service, and dedication to staff welfare have earned us the prestigious Hospitality Assured accreditation.
We are looking to expand the team at Poco and currently have the following vacancies:
Experienced Front of House
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys ensuring that our guests have the best night out possible. We want to make their meal special and this is where you come in.
Our best team members are warm and friendly and enjoy going the extra mile to make our guests feel welcome. Front of House experience is appreciated and familiarity with EPOS systems will help you hit the ground running - but this can of course be taught. You will also be confident recommending our wines and fixing drinks as well as managing the flow of guests coming into the restaurant.
Hours are between 2 and 5 shifts a week (we can be flexible), some of which will be over the weekend - we work hard on our rotas to give you as many or as few hours as you prefer.
We offer competitive rates of pay and great tips alongside a respectful and friendly work environment.
Please email us brief details about yourself in the first instance (pocopizzalyme@gmail.com) and we will arrange a time to chat
Pizzaiolo
A great opportunity to join a friendly team working with high quality ingredients in a small busy pizzeria by the sea in Lyme Regis. The Pizzaiolo role is the glory job in the restaurant - running our wood-fired oven and ensuring that our Roman style pizzas are cooked to perfection.
We’re looking for someone with a passion for food and willingness to be an integral part of a great team. Pizza oven experience would be fantastic - but it's a skill that can be learnt by someone with the right attitude and aptitude - and we have some great teachers.
You could also occasionally be supporting the head chef in making dough, passata and desserts as well as preparing ingredients for service. We source our ingredients either from Italy or from our local vicinity and will encourage you to learn more about the ingredients and recognise great quality.
The ideal candidate would be looking for around 4 shifts per week, some of which would be over the weekend but we could accommodate more or less than this.
We are committed to ethical employment and are the first small business in the UK to be awarded ‘Hospitality Assured’ by The Institute of Hospitality - recognising our dedication to providing high quality service.
Our wages are competitive with a great range of benefits including tips.

Our ethos is to create an environment where staff are happy to work and want to stay. So we believe that planning rotas well in advance to allow you to plan your time off is as important as good pay and conditions.
We train our staff - not just on service but on our menu too. We only use the best ingredients from trusted Italian suppliers and it's important that you understand the benefits and provenance of our food. So we hold regular tastings as well as providing all staff with a pizza to take home at the end of a shift - so that you can recommend your favourite pizzas to our guests.
A supportive team. We have a no negativity policy. All staff work together and support each other.
Uniform provided - do you look good in stripes?
Staff Discount - Fancy a pizza on your night off? We've got you covered.
And of course that glorious view - every shift.
