The Gallivant

The Gallivant, the award winning restaurant with rooms just a stone's throw from the beaches of Camber, are proud to share news of their innovative new pay and bonus structure for their team.

The hotel is now one of the only hotels in the UK to pay their team £9 or more per hour, an additional performance based bonus and also a share of the company's profits at the end of the financial year. They no longer add a service charge onto the bill, but instead made some small amendments to the menu pricing, ensuring fair pay across the team.

The Gallivant was praised by the SRA when awarded the top accolade of 3 stars in July 2015 for their commitment to staff training and management and owner Harry Cragoe is passionate about creating an environment where his team feel and know they are really valued as an integral part of the team and will enjoy the benefits of the hotel's success.

“It is very important for us to ensure every staff member at The Gallivant knows how much they contribute and are valued, from the team who clean the rooms, to the kitchen porter right through to the amazing waiting staff and sous chefs – they are all vital roles, and contribute to making The Gallivant such a success” said owner Harry Cragoe.

The Gallivant is currently undergoing a rolling renovation, with all 20 new rooms being completed by mid Spring, many with roll tops baths and private gardens.  With a series of gourmet evenings with guest chefs and local vineyards planned for 2016 and chefs Kevin Bennett and Oliver Joyce creating delicious locally sourced, seasonal menus, The Gallivant team are looking forward to a busy and exciting year by the sea.
