Recruitment is underway at the first venues opening in Nottingham鈥檚 new Island Quarter development.
Some 80 jobs are being created at The Binks Yard and Cleaver & Wake, which will be the first to open this summer in the first phase of the new canal-side development.
A recruitment event is taking place in July 22 to fill many of the posts. It takes place from 9-4pm over three two-hour sessions and will be held at Binks Yard.
Fine dining restaurant Cleaver & Wake will use the 鈥渂est meat, fish and veg from across the British Isles鈥 while Binks Yard will serve craft beer, cocktails and grills and have a wood-fired pizza oven.
The recruitment events will include talks from management and key staff members and tours of the premises. There will also be a complimentary cocktail and a selection of bites from the Binks Yard menu, as well as a goodie bag.
Emma Pearson, HR business partner for The Island Quarter, said: 鈥淭he upcoming Binks Yard and Cleaver & Wake launches mark a really exciting new chapter for Nottingham, and we鈥檙e inviting the region鈥檚 hospitality workers to be a part of that.
