Working at Burger & Lobster

In 2011 the story began with four schoolmates on a rooftop in London. They came up with the idea to set up a restaurant where the focus was on perfecting the craft of just one or two main ingredients. In a small Irish pub in Mayfair, the first Burger & Lobster was born.

Since then, we have been bringing wild lobsters and prime cut burgers to fun and passionate personalities around the world who share our appetite for creativity. Simplicity is at the core of the Burger & Lobster concept, with respect for great food and quality service.

Today, we craft prime burgers, serve wild, fresh Atlantic lobsters and shake up a tempting cocktail list.
Burger and Lobster currently have multiple sites in London, New York, Dubai, Bangkok, Malaysia’s Genting Highlands and Kuwait City.

We were also one of the first restaurant groups in the UK to publish our gender pay gap figures and we’re not surprised to realise that we didn’t have one. Our pay structure is based on role level, not gender, and we believe that is how it should be. So, why not join our ever-growing team as we continue to treat all of our colleagues equally and offer the same pay, reward, and career development opportunities to ensure that everyone has a successful career with us.

Its just the Burger & Lobster way!

" Here at Burger & Lobster, we're a people-first business. From our customers to our team members, people are at the heart of all we do. Everything we are is because of our team. They're not just an integral part of us; they're the absolute paramount factor to our success. Team engagement and individual success is our priority. It remained at the top of our agenda since day one, ten years ago, and will remain so as we look towards the next ten."
Dino Sura, Managing Director

When I first started with Burger & Lobster, I felt overwhelmed and nervous. However, I quickly realized that everyone is incredibly kind and welcoming. It feels amazing to progress from Commis Chef to Chef De Partie in 11 months. Working in the kitchen is enjoyable; we talk, laugh, and I've learned so much. From day one, I've been treated like a part of the family and I feel like I belong here.

I've been working here for 7 years, starting as a Barback with no knowledge of English. Since then, I've worked my way up to becoming a Bartender, Waiter, and eventually an Assistant General Manager. What I truly appreciate is the close-knit, friendly atmosphere in Burger & Lobster. It feels like we are a family. I also have to highlight the work - life balance here - almost 99% of the time flexible working requests are granted. It's really inspiring to work for a company that encourage and support us.
