PUB MANAGER

We are on the look out for an experienced Pub Manager.

Responsibilities
As a Manager, you will be responsible for the commercial success of the business. In this management position you would oversee the running of all aspects of the business, including front-of-house work, letting rooms, staff recruitment, accounting, stock control, marketing and advertising, with support given by your Operations Manager and the marketing department.

Being the manager will require strong management, commercial and practical skills as well a key eye for detail and retail standards. You’ll have to constantly adapt to ensure that the pub is profitable, pleasant and safe and that it is run in accordance with the law and ethical guidelines. As a company we believe it is important for our pub managers to lead from the front.
