The Role:
We’re looking for a pragmatic Manager to take full ownership of one of our venues. You’ll be the person behind the smooth operation of the entire venue, ensuring every shift, service, and team member works in harmony.

• Follow health and safety procedures at all times, ensuring the wellbeing of yourself, colleagues, and guests
• Handle staffing, recruitment, rotas, and training with confidence
• Drive sales, manage budgets, and maintain profitability
• Be hands-on – this is hospitality, there’s no easy ride, and you should be ready to roll your sleeves up
• Work evenings, weekends, and bank holidays – not all the time, but most of them. Hospitality isn’t a 9-5 office job; we need someone who understands that & thrives!

What We Offer:

• Competitive pay

• Passionate about running a profitable, high-quality business and delivering first-class experiences

If you’re ready to take full control of a fantastic venue, lead a brilliant team, and make a real impact this Christmas and beyond, we want to hear from you.
