This is a major milestone for the brand as it ventures into a new continent entirely and we are now looking for a brilliant leadership team to help bring this lifestyle brand to the market.\nLocated in the heart of the city centre, The Hoxton, Bengaluru City will bring its undeniable brand DNA and guest experience to India’s “Silicon Valley”, a high-tech city filled with parks and gardens and known for its vibrant cafe and pub culture - very apt for a brand that was founded in London!\nThe hotel will feature 149 bedrooms in a variety of The Hoxton’s well-loved room categories and the lobby will have a vibrant all-day dining restaurant & bar. Topping off the hotel we will have a rooftop pool and bar, large scale function rooms and The Apartment - The Hoxton’s unique meeting & events concept\nMore about us…\nThe Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and submerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces.\nWhat's in it for you...\nThe opportunity to be part of bringing The Hoxton to India and have a real impact on the success of our first hotel in Asia.\nJoin an innovative, fast-growing, international group that’s committed to not just building new hotels but building a global brand.\nThe chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding.\nBecome part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences.\nGreat discounts across the entire Ennismore family (which you get to keep even if you decide to leave us!).\nA competitive package and plenty of opportunity for development.\n What you’ll do…\nHelp create and regularly refresh a balanced, exciting and commercially sensible wine list for our restaurants, bars and events.\nMake wine recommendations that start with the guest - listening to what they like, explaining options simply and never making anyone feel out of their depth.\nDeliver confident, relaxed wine service, including pairing, decanting and bottle presentation where appropriate.\nBuild sales through genuine knowledge, great storytelling and thoughtful suggestions rather than hard selling.\nManage wine ordering, receiving, storage, stock rotation and inventories, keeping availability and quality under control.\nTrack wine performance and revenue, using the numbers to refine the list, pricing and activity plan.\nTrain and coach the F&B team on wine knowledge, service, pairings and how to make useful recommendations.\nCreate tastings, events and collaborations that bring people into the hotel and make wine feel social and fun.\nDevelop good relationships with suppliers and stay connected to new producers, regions and trends.\nWork closely with chefs and F&B leaders so the wine and food offers complement each other.\n What we’re looking for…\nIndividuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here.\nPassion for hospitality - whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night.\nYou’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.\nYou’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done.\nYou’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.\nIf we got stuck in a lift together, we’d have a good time and share a few laughs.\nYou want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other, and has fun along the way.\nYou’ll have experience working as a Sommelier or in a wine-focused restaurant or bar role.\nYou have strong knowledge of key wine regions, grapes, styles and food pairing, and you keep learning because the subject never really stops.\nA recognised wine qualification such as WSET Level 2 or 3, CMS or equivalent is preferred.\nYou’re engaging and approachable, able to talk to both wine enthusiasts and complete beginners.\nYou combine a love of wine with good commercial instincts around pricing, stock and revenue.\nYou’re confident training teams and creating tastings or events.\nYou communicate fluently in English; additional languages are a bonus.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4811,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"All levels","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Hotels & Resorts"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-20T23:27:11Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":63,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.632,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":24,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-21T05:46:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/accor-sommelier-5","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/accor-sommelier-5.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-22T06:08:16Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":871,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-23T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":8914},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=8914"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Faccor-sommelier-5"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Faccor-sommelier-5"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Faccor-sommelier-5"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/accor-sommelier-5\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Faccor-sommelier-5"}]}
