Deputy General Manager - Contract Catering

£55k per annum

Are you a hospitality professional who thrives on “the art of the possible”? We are looking for a visionary Deputy General Manager to join the leadership team at one of London’s most prestigious financial institutions.

This isn’t just about maintaining standards; it’s about elevating them. With major refurbishments currently underway, you will play a pivotal role in launching a world-class environment and driving a culture of service excellence across the Hospitality Floor.

The Role
As Deputy General Manager, you will be the engine room for my client’s hospitality operation.

You will focus on:

  • Lifting Standards: Moving the service from “great” to “exceptional,” ensuring every touchpoint reflects the premium nature of the brand.
  • The Big Launch: Taking the lead on the operational opening of the newly refurbished hospitality floor.
  • Leadership: Directly overseeing and mentoring the team. You will be a constant, visible presence on the hospitality floor, restaurant and café spaces, coaching the team and engaging with their high-profile clientele.
  • Business Growth: Identifying opportunities to strengthen the offering and grow the footprint of the catering and hospitality services on-site.

Who You Are

  • A Hospitality Specialist: You have a deep-rooted passion for service and a background in high-end corporate dining or luxury hotels.
  • A “Floor-First” Leader: You believe management happens in the thick of the action, not behind a desk. You are a natural at increasing management presence and driving performance through visibility.
  • Commercially Savvy: You understand the KPIs that drive a successful contract and know how to deliver results that satisfy both the client and the business.
  • Resilient & Adaptable: With various refurbishment phases, you are comfortable navigating change and planning for high-stakes openings.

What’s in it for you?

  • A competitive salary of up to £55,000.
  • An achievable, KPI-led client bonus structure.
  • The chance to put your stamp on a flagship site with brand-new, state-of-the-art facilities.
