Make someone’s day. Build your own future.

French food, wine and warm hospitality start with people who care. In the kitchen, behind the bar and across the dining room, everyone has a part to play.

Bring your curiosity, your ideas and your sense of teamwork. We’ll help you learn the Marcel way and develop your skills along the way.

Life at Marcel

Good service. Great teamwork.

We notice the small things, welcome guests with warmth and support one another through a busy service. Good hospitality takes care, confidence and a team that works together.

Your ideas matter, too. Through our Out of the Box initiative, team members can suggest ways to improve the guest experience, our working day and the choices we make.

We welcome different backgrounds and experiences. Respect, fairness and the chance to contribute belong in every Marcel team.
