Are you ready to lead a beautiful countryside venue with personality, charm, and a thriving events calendar?

We are currently looking for an exceptional General Manager to take the reins of this unique, relaxed hospitality destination. With its warm, informal atmosphere and stunning rural setting, this isn't your typical "suits and ties" operation-this is hospitality done differently.

The Role

As General Manager, you'll be responsible for the overall running of the venue, leading a strong leadership team and delivering outstanding guest experiences across both restaurant service and events.

The venue hosts 50-60 weddings per year , with up to 100 guests seated , alongside a bustling food and beverage operation-making this a varied, rewarding, and hands-on leadership role.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Leading, inspiring, and developing a team of 4 Heads of Department
  • Managing a team of 20-25 staff in the low season and 50-60 staff in the high season
  • Overseeing day-to-day operations across restaurant and events
  • Delivering exceptional service standards in a relaxed, countryside setting
  • Managing a busy wedding calendar alongside a thriving F&B operation
  • Driving financial performance and operational excellence
  • Creating a positive, engaging team culture

Why Join Us?

  • Work-life balance that matters - only 2 days per week working past 6pm
  • 1 full weekend off every month
  • No suits - a casual, authentic environment
  • Beautiful countryside location
  • Work with a supportive leadership structure within the company

What We're Looking For

  • A proven General Manager or senior hospitality leader
  • Experience in high-quality dining and/or events-led venues
  • A natural leader who thrives in a hands-on, people-first environment
  • Strong commercial awareness and organisational skills
  • Someone who embraces a relaxed yet high-standard hospitality style

The Details

  • Salary: £40,000 - £45,000
  • Hours: 48 hours over 5 days from 7

If you're passionate about hospitality, love the idea of leading a venue where great food, great events, and great people come together , and want a role that offers genuine balance-this could be your perfect next step.
