What you’ll be doing

As our Bar Manager, you’ll do much more than simply open and close the bar. You will create an inviting atmosphere where both guests and team members feel valued and engaged. Your creativity will shine through in your cocktail-making, while your extensive knowledge of bar service will empower you to coach your team to deliver exceptional moments for our guests.

You’ll be responsible for managing all operational aspects of the bar, including revenue, stock control, recruitment, and staff scheduling. But beyond these tasks, you will cultivate a space that our guests love to talk about and return to time and again. Your leadership will play a pivotal role in shaping the guest experience, ensuring every detail is attended to and that quality is never compromised.

What you’ll bring

We’re looking for a dynamic leader who embodies our values and is passionate about hospitality. Key qualities include:

• Creative and Inspiring Leadership: The ability to motivate and develop your team, fostering a positive and engaging work environment.
• Attention to Detail: A genuine desire to impress guests and deliver the highest standards of service.
• Passion for Guest Service: An unwavering commitment to creating exceptional experiences for every guest.
• Excellent Communication Skills: The ability to communicate effectively with both guests and team members, ensuring clarity and collaboration.
• Analytical Skills: Strong organizational capabilities with a focus on quality and efficiency in operations.
• Awareness of High Standards: A keen eye for detail, ensuring the bar meets and exceeds expectations.

If you’re excited about the opportunity to lead a passionate team and create unforgettable experiences for our guests, we’d love to hear from you.
