Hospitality Team Member Apprenticeship Level 2
Course introduction
You can lay the foundations for career progression in hospitality by acquiring essential knowledge, skills and behaviours thanks to this apprenticeship opportunity.
A hospitality team member can work in a range of establishments such as bars, restaurants, cafés, conference centres, banqueting venues, hotels or contract caterers.
The role is very varied and although hospitality team members tend to specialise in one area, they also have to be adaptable and ready to support team members across the business.
Specialist areas in hospitality include food and beverage service, food preparation, housekeeping, concierge and guest services, reception tasks and conference and banqueting duties.
This apprenticeship is suitable for you if you are working in bars, restaurants, cafés, conference centres, banqueting venues, hotels, cruise ships and private households. It is also suitable for you if you have been offered such a role.
