Try new things, build confidence, and back yourself to take the next step. We’ll give you the support. You choose what to do with it.

INDIVIDUALITY

Celebrate our differences.

Come as you are: bold tattoos, big laugh, brave choices, bad dance moves - we love it all. We hire people, not clones.

Make it happen.

Show up, step up, and give it your best. Even when it feels like a stretch. No egos, no shortcuts. Just work you can be proud of.

TOGETHERNESS

Be part of more.

Look out for each other, pitch in and celebrate the wins together. The best shifts happen when everyone is in it as one team.

Enjoy the everyday.

Take the work seriously, not yourself. If you aren't having fun along the way, you're doing it wrong.

REAL ZIZZI TEAM STORIES

Want proof? Here's how people have grown their hospitality careers at Zizzi.

INGA’S ZIZZI OPS JOURNEY


“I started as a waitress in St Albans, and I’m now an Ops Manager. I embraced every opportunity, even the daunting ones, because they helped me grow. My leadership development and coaching at Zizzi have been transformative. Wherever you are in your journey, never stop learning or challenging yourself.”

SARAH’S ZIZZI TRAINING JOURNEY


“I joined at 16 as a Front of House Team Member and became a General Manager by 20 (after a cheeky ski season). I grabbed every bit of training I could. Now I am a National Trainer. If you build your network, push yourself, and make your own opportunities, you’ll go far here.”

NELLA’S ZIZZI MANAGEMENT JOURNEY


“From Kitchen Porter to General Manager, I’ve done it all! Zizzi has helped me discover how to be more present, to listen, and to give great feedback. On your journey, don’t be afraid to speak up. We’re surrounded by beautiful people who help us grow.”

ZSOLT’S ZIZZI FOOD DEVELOPMENT JOURNEY


“I started in 2009 as a section chef. Now I’m with the food development team. Zizzi has taught me to listen to understand and to empower others. Don’t give up on your development - work hard and it will pay off!”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Not for most of our hospitality roles. Attitude matters more than experience. For management roles, we look for some experience, but we also look for transferable skills.

It’s fast-paced and hands-on. You could be serving guests, making food, cleaning down, and supporting your team. It can be busy, but you are always in it together.

Part-time and full-time roles are available, with flexibility where possible. Our restaurants run from 10:00 AM to late, 7 days a week. Your availability and minimum contracted hours are agreed upfront.

We will usually get in touch to invite for a chat. For management roles, we need a bit more, like a video call, an interview, and an assessment.

It could be a matter of days if everything goes to plan. We aim to keep the process moving so you're not left waiting.

Pay depends on the role, experience, and location. We’ll be clear from the start.

Hourly roles are paid every two weeks, salaried roles monthly, plus a share of the tips/ tronc – 100% of which goes to our team.

Your induction contains hands-on training, e-learning, and regular check-ins with your manager. Management roles include a four-week training programme, usually in your local restaurant. After that, we have our Viaggio career development programme.

Zizzi Italian Restaurants

It all started in Chiswick, with a little neighbourhood Italian restaurant, one pizza oven and a few glasses of wine. Fast forward 27 years, and we’ve got over 130 Italian restaurants. Sounds like a lot now we’ve written it down. We’re still doing things our way. Bowlfuls of pasta, pizzas with light, crispy bases, generous portions and food that makes you go “oooooo” when it hits the table. And dessert? Always. Life’s too short to skip the sweet stuff. Come hungry. Leave happy.
