Job description

My client is a cool, trendy company, stable with more sites opening in 2026. The company is a bit of a leader, very people and culture focused. They are dedicated to quality of service, which is undertaken at the South London site. They are keen on finding a Bar Manager to lead the team and oversee all aspects of the business.

This Bars Manager role involves overseeing a new business that will be more wet-led but with a good food offering. The site will be generating approximately GBP 40,000 to GBP 80,000 weekly, depending on various factors.

They are looking for an experienced hands-on Bars Manager, but also someone with the skills that could develop into an excellent General Manager in the future. Familiarity with the London scene is important. Personality is a major factor in this role, as the venues, although centrally located, are run as local bars.

A minimum of 2 years of stable Bars Manager experience in a high-quality, wet-led venue is an essential requirement, along with excellent P&L and business development skills.
