Descripción del empleo

We're looking for a General Manager for the Bull in Ditchling. This is the epitome of a Sussex Country pub. Rustic Charm, plenty of nooks and crannies, a sun trap of a garden and 6 bedrooms for customers who want to spend the night. The food is all about fresh seasonal local produce, used to create stunning elevated pub classics and blackboard specials that showcase all that Sussex has to offer.

The perfect candidate has a track record of working with fresh food, is passionate about delivering a great guest experience and has a fantastic operational mind. They will be happy being the face of the business, and as comfortable interacting with the regulars at the bar as they are running food-lead events and a busy Sunday Service.
