The Twisted Trout isn’t just a pub — it’s a 350-year-old coaching inn brought back to life by Harvey and Emma, and the brilliant team around them. We serve traditional food with a twist, pour exceptional local ales and wines, and welcome every guest like family. If that sounds like somewhere you’d love to work, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re a Freehouse in the heart of Rutland — independent, passionate, and proud of what we do. Our kitchen turns out home-cooked dishes that keep locals coming back week after week. Our bar pours cask ales you won’t find anywhere else. And our rooms welcome guests from all over the country.
But what really makes this place special is the people. We work hard, we laugh a lot, and we genuinely care about giving every guest a brilliant experience. If that resonates with you, you’ll fit right in.
We know life doesn’t revolve around a rota. We work with you to find shifts that fit around your life — whether you’re studying, parenting, or pursuing a passion.
Every shift comes with a home-cooked meal from our kitchen and drinks on the house. You’ll eat as well as our guests.
We’re a small, tight-knit crew who look out for each other. No egos, no drama — just good people doing good work.
Work in a 17th-century coaching inn in the heart of Empingham, minutes from Rutland Water. Your commute ends at one of England’s loveliest villages.
