Investing in growth Corbin & King is a company driven by a deeply-held set of fundamental beliefs and values, which is reflected in all it does on a daily basis. We like to make our employees feel motivated and challenged and, more than that, valued. We provide development
opportunities as the company continues to grow, so our staff can grow with it. As an Investor in People, we have a broad range of development programmes to nurture the chefs and managers of the future. Many of our former employees have
gone on to become household names – including Mark Hix and Chris Galvin – and our current teams come from some of the top hospitality companies in the country. As the company expands, we still
hold close the feeling of a family culture and truly believe that hospitality comes from the heart, not the boardroom.
Case study Nathan Brown, senior maître d’, the Wolseley I started working at the Wolseley as an assistant maître d’hotel. My job was to make sure I greeted and seated all customers who came through the doors – I became the eyes and ears for the senior maître d’hotel. After some on-the-job-training,
I learned to look after the bar, foyer and salon areas. I gradually expanded on this and my knowledge of our regular guests vastly improved. I then started to look after afternoon tea service, which is a particularly tricky time of day. I learned how to allocate tables, make sure we were not overbooked and to make the service run seamlessly – it’s a real skill to master. As I kept improving, I was offered the chance to train on breakfast and lunches, giving me further exposure to the restaurant. Since then, I’ve gone from strength to strength; some say I’m the face of the Wolseley during breakfast and lunch! It’s always a challenge working for the Wolseley and I am proud that I have become the number two on reception.
