Join Our Gang
Everyone Leaves Happy, Including You
We work from a simple philosophy that everyone who walks through our doors leaves
happy. That goes for our guests but, most importantly, the teams of people who come
to work at Blacklock every day.
We offer challenging and exciting jobs and
careers that can take you far with the care and development of our team are at the
heart of what we do. With staff trips to Cornwall to see how our meat is reared and
visits to Harbour Brewery to taste our house beer, there's lots to learn and huge
amounts of fun to be had along the way.
In 2023, we became a B Corp and
were listed as one of the Best Companies to Work for in the UK, two accolades that
mean the world and simply spur us on to continue to be the very best company we can
be.

new home.
Blackstock
Time to Party
Every year, we close the restaurants for the day and get together for our day-long
festival to celebrate hard work and personal achievements, and generally have a rare
old time. It's a day full of great food and drink (obviously), games (a little
healthy competition), fantastic music and general great vibes.
There's
usually a theme which you can get as involved in as you like, but it's become a
permanent fixture in the Blacklock calendar that we all look forward to with
year-long anticipation. Need another reason to celebrate? It's a fully paid day so
all you have to do is turn up, let your hair down and have fun.
