Couple required at stunning Sicilian agriturismo (February to October 2022) - Sant'Angelo Muxaro, Italy

Help wanted at stunning Sicilian agriturismo. We run a small, picturesque agriturismo in the beautiful Platani valley - 20 mins north of Agrigento and the famous valley of the Temples. We are looking for a friendly, honest and hardworking couple to help us from April until November 2022.

Work will include: meeting, greeting and hosting guests; cleaning; kitchen help and food preparation; and occasional work on the farm.We need two people (a couple) who:

- are native or fluent in English (to communicate with guests)
- speak Italian to a sufficient level (beginner is ok, you just have to communicate with us)
- are cheery and like meeting people
- are reliable and not afraid of hard work (especially during the summer months).

Hospitality and catering experience would be an advantage.
 

We will provide you with your own en-suite bedroom and all meals. During your time-off you will have an opportunity to explore the beautiful countryside or simply relax by our pool. And true to Sicilian tradition we will welcome you into our family!

Feudo Muxarello is a lively place, but also a happy place. There is always work to do (especially during the busier tourist season), but everyone works with a smile and we always make time to talk, laugh and enjoy meals together (welcoming both staff and guests into our family).

For this reason we are looking for a couple who are: friendly (sociable people who like meeting people); hardworking (people who are happy to help when it is busy); and honest (people we can entrust to run the agriturismo when we are busy on the farm). Most importantly, we need a couple who speak English fluently, and who also speak Italian to a sufficient level (because we speak little English and will find it difficult to communicate otherwise). If you have hospitality or catering experience this will be a bonus!

Although no two days are ever the same, and we will try and match you to tasks that suit your experience and preferences and make sure you have time to relax/sightsee, generally we will need help with the following tasks:

- running the breakfast buffet
- cleaning the rooms; kitchen and sala
- food preparation/cooking
- greeting and checking-in guests
- waitressing and hosting communal dinners
- grounds and garden maintenance
- occasional farm help
- (if you want) teaching us English

A flexible, happy approach is therefore appreciated!
