Step off King and Flinders Street and into something familiar yet entirely unexpected. The Waterside Hotel is a destination that transports you — alive with the energy Melbourne is known for, yet sparked by flavours, sounds and stories from everywhere.

What’s happening

We’re building a crew across every corner of the venue who share our passion for genuine hospitality. Right now, we’re looking for Duty Managers. Our leaders who set the tone each shift, keep service flowing and make sure every detail counts.

From the energy of the Public Bar to the spice of Past/Port Dining, the rooftop’s skyline glamour and the intimacy of private dining levels above — every space at The Waterside feels like its own world. With so many experiences under one roof, you’ll grow new skills and unlock career opportunities that elevate your future.

Who you are

You’re a natural leader who thrives when it’s busy. Shift running comes second nature - you keep calm, stay sharp and deliver service that’s as genuine as it is memorable.

You know how to coach, support and motivate the people around you. With your ability to engage and inspire, you bring out the best in your team while making sure every guest leaves feeling they belong.

What to expect

Award wages (penalties etc.)

Training & development that takes you further, including leadership growth and cross-training

Recognition that celebrates you and your impact

A culture of trust and belonging, where every voice matters

Flexible rostering with a mix of days, nights, weekends or late nights to suit you

What’s on offer

We’re offering multiple Duty Manager roles across the venue. Your chance to step into an exciting opening, showcase your leadership and help shape a crew that will set the tone from day one.

No cover letter needed, just drop us a quick line on where you see yourself (or who you want to be) at The Waterside.

There’s a place for you at The Waterside. Apply now.

We’ll be meeting candidates in September, with our Duty Managers stepping into The Waterside from October 2025.
