Careers

The team behind the pubs

Great pubs are built by great people. So we put just as much energy into developing our teams as we do our pubs.

We hire for attitude, train for skill and are proud to promote from within. With in-house development pathways, hands-on training and opportunities to step into bigger roles as we grow, Dodo is a place where you can build a proper career in hospitality.

For those just starting out, our 12-week paid internship programme gives young people real experience across the business, helping build the skills and confidence to kick-start a career in the industry.

And there are plenty of perks along the way — team canteen meals, staff discount on food and drink at all times, wellbeing support, team parties and events, plus the chance to be part of a growing independent pub company.

Whether you’re starting your first hospitality job, ready to step up or looking for your next big challenge, there’s a place to grow at Dodo.

Join the team. Learn your craft. Grow with Dodo.
