Team Leader Apprenticeship

About the role

The Kings Head is a pub restaurant and hotel nestled within the leafy Norfolk village of Hoveton and offers a warm welcome with waterside dining. Dating back to the 1890s, the building's exterior brick and stone facade retains a historic beauty, while a recent refurbishment has given all our amenities a modern makeover.
