Bookkeeper / Administration – Restaurant & Hotel Group

Bottega | Luxsmith | The Vic Hotel Footscray | Yardbird

Who We Are

We’re a small, established hospitality group operating four venues across Melbourne and Albury:

- Bottega – Italian fine dining, Melbourne CBD

- Luxsmith – Mod-Asian restaurant & wine bar, Seddon
- The Vic Hotel – A local pub favourite, Footscray

- Yardbird – Modern European restaurant, Albury

We’re a hands-on team and are looking for an experienced Bookkeeper / Administrator to join us in a part-time capacity.

About the Role

This is a varied role of approximately 20 hours per week, working across bookkeeping, accounts, payroll administration and general office administration.

There is the potential for a hybrid working arrangement, with a combination of working from home and onsite across our venues as required.

You’ll work closely with our directors and venue managers, so we’re looking for someone who is organised, reliable, comfortable working independently and happy to get involved across different areas of the business.

The best part? Hospitality hours without the hospitality hours! No nights or weekends required.
