Job description

General
Manager - Up to 50K - Live In - plus up to 100% bonus

We're looking for a General Manager for the charming City
Gate, close to Exeter's historic city centre. The City Gate has a
sun trap of a courtyard, 20 boutique bedrooms and a private cellar bar full of
character and charm that can be hired for private events, parties and weddings.
This business has gone from strength to strength under our previous GM, who is
moving on to new opportunities, and is perfectly positioned for the right person to come in and continue to drive the pub forward.

We're looking for a people-focused GM that has experience
running a pub and is used to working with fresh food to continue to develop
this traditional yet quirky community site which is a firm favourite for locals
and visitors alike. A great opportunity for someone that runs a great pub
to challenge themselves in running a pub with rooms, and is willing to embed
themselves within the Exeter community.

Running a Pub for Young's:

We believe pubs should be differentiated and individual and
so we are looking for entrepreneurial General Managers to put their own stamp
on our businesses. We're all about freedom within a framework - you decide what
goes on the food menu - and that doesn't mean picking from a bank of recipes!
You tailor your offer to your guests and grow the business in line with your
business vision! You decide what events and sales driving to do, what the
team uniform is, and look after all your own recruitment and marketing.
If you are a people-focused Pub General Manager with fresh food experience,
then we want to hear from you.

What We Offer Our General
Managers:

• Huge annual bonus potential - up to 100% of your salary!
• Private Health Insurance
• Enhanced Company Pension Scheme
• Life Assurance Scheme
• 20% discount in all Young's pubs and 30% discount on overnight stays in our Pubs with Rooms
• Access to our Share Save Scheme
• Access to our Career Pathway and Training and Development Courses

What we look for in a
General Manager:

We are looking for a creative &
entrepreneurial General Manager to join and lead our team in our stylish, food
focused pub. As the successful General Manager, you will embrace the autonomy
given to run your business and offer unique ideas to drive your team to
success. You will have a genuine passion for exceptional customer service and a
pro-active approach to team management. You will recruit & develop your
team to ensure they have the
knowledge needed to delight our customers.
You
will also be someone who is committed to their career in hospitality and we can
offer ongoing development to
support you as you grow and succeed with us.

“We believe in
developing our people to delight our customers”
