About Arno Ristorante
Bring the world of Italian wines to life at Arno Ristorante
In October 2025, Arno Ristorante will open its doors – a stylish fine-dining restaurant in the heart of a brand-new event center in Ghent. Arno brings the flavors and atmosphere of Tuscany to life in a warm, vibrant setting. For this unique venue, we are looking for a sommelier who can inspire and guide guests in their wine selection – with a special focus on Italian fine wines
Your role
1. Welcome guests with knowledge and enthusiasm, guiding them in their wine choices.
2. Advise and serve our extensive selection of Italian wines – from Brunello and Barolo to surprising Super Tuscans – with passion and expertise.
3. Work closely with the chef and service team to propose food & wine pairings that elevate the dining experience.
4. Manage the wine list and inventory, follow trends, and suggest new additions.
5. Contribute to the refined and hospitable atmosphere that makes Arno Ristorante unique.

8. You are a team player with an eye for detail and enjoy working at a steady pace.
9. You have strong communication skills and speak fluent Dutch or English (additional languages are an asset).
