Bartender
Our Group
At Ardent, everything starts with people. Whether you’re walking into one of our pubs or joining our team, you’ll be met with genuine warmth. We build pubs that are rooted in their communities, driven by purpose and built to last.
We operate three acclaimed pubs - The George (Fitzrovia), The Cadogan Arms (Chelsea), and The Hound (Chiswick) - each rooted in tradition but full of fresh energy. In 2024, we were named Food-Led Pub Group of the Year at the R200 Awards, with The Cadogan Arms and The George both featured in the Top 100 Gastropubs list.
As hospitality’s highest-scoring B-Corp certified company, we’re committed to doing business the right way - balancing exceptional guest experiences with meaningful social and environmental impact. Our culture is just as important as our performance, which is why we’re proud to be recognised in CODE Hospitality’s Happiest Places to Work 2025.
Our mission is to deliver the gold standard of public houses - where quality food, drink, and service create exceptional experiences. If that resonates, we’d love to hear from you.

The Position
We’re looking for a passionate Bartender to join our team at The Hound, in Chiswick, delivering exceptional drinks and memorable guest experiences with personality and flair. You’ll thrive in a high-volume pub, bar, or restaurant environment, bringing knowledge of beers, whisky, and cocktails.
The ideal candidate will have:
Previous experience as a Bartender in a fast-paced, quality pub, bar, or restaurant
A hands-on, proactive attitude with a willingness to roll up your sleeves
Creativity and exceptional attention to detail
Passion for beverages, food, and hospitality, with a desire to learn and grow
Ambition to develop your career within an award-winning pub group
If you enjoy crafting drinks, engaging with guests, and working in a lively pub environment, we’d love to hear from you.
Our commitment to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion
At Ardent Pub Group, the greatest welcome isn’t just something we give to our guests — it’s something we extend to everyone who walks through our doors. Our pubs are built on warmth, character and community, and that only works when the people who make them thrive feel respected, valued and able to be themselves.
We believe that a diverse team makes for a better pub: richer ideas, better problem-solving, more creativity and a stronger connection to the communities we serve. Inclusion isn’t an initiative for us — it’s part of how we operate every day.
