As popular Caribbean bar and restaurant brand Turtle Bay prepares to open its first Scottish location, it brings with it 60 new employment opportunities for those in Glasgow and the surrounds.

Searching for a brilliant team to provide fantastic customer experiences in the heart of the city centre, the expansion offers a range of roles for those seeking exciting new employment opportunities. On the lookout for candidates that demonstrate a spirit of positivity and desire to learn, Turtle Bay is providing an opportunity for those looking to move into the restaurant industry, focusing on cultural fit and enthusiasm over experience.

Showcasing the various opportunities available, the restaurant will be hosting a Recruitment Day on Wednesday 8 November at Maldron Hotel on Renfrew Street, in Central Glasgow. Through this event, Turtle Bay hopes to fill 50 remaining jobs available at the new venue, with available positions in the kitchen, bar, and front of house team that will provide experience and growth opportunities to applicants throughout different stages of their career.

Turtle Bay’s recruitment day will provide a fun, interactive experience that gives applicants the opportunity to get a real taste of what it would be like to work for the restaurant. The day will include in-person interviews and group activities, alongside a short online assessment, all conducted in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The day will provide a chance for candidates to get to know the brand in more detail, hearing from some of the team who work for the company about what makes it a great place to work.

Gemma Lewis, Operations Manager at Turtle Bay said: “We’ve always focused on recruiting and hiring a team who exude the energy and excitement that Turtle Bay gives to its guests – for us, attitude and fit are much more important than hospitality experience. The right people will be fast learners who will pick up those skills as they go! We can’t wait to meet the enthusiastic new recruits who will become our first Scotland team.

“Our expansion into Scotland is an exciting time for us but also offers a chance for us to provide long-term employment opportunities for the local area, as we seek to bring Carribean good times to Glasgow.”

Turtle Bay’s first opening in Scotland comes following the brand’s success in England and Wales, with Glasgow marking the 52nd location since the brand was established in 2010.

Located at 130 St Vincent St, Glasgow, Turtle Bay will be bringing its signature soulful Caribbean-inspired menu, delicious tropical cocktails and reggae beats to the heart of the city centre.
