Job description

At Cosy Club Nottingham we’ve created a place where people come together to celebrate life’s special moments. Our venues are cinematic, glamorous, and full of character, open for leisurely lunches to late-night soirees. Our mission: Deliver truly memorable hospitality.

Our flagship site Nottingham is Cosy Club's biggest and arguably the best. Spread across three floors, not only do we have impressive bar and restaurant areas but five private dining rooms.

This isn't the role for the faint-hearted but one for someone that has a genuine passion for hospitality and a drive to the best and grow as we do!

As one of our General Managers, you could earn in the region of circa £72,000 per year:

• Base Salary: Up to £60,000 per year depending on experience
• Tronc: Estimated between £6.5k - £10k annually. Our tips are shared equally across the team based on hours worked.
• Bonus: Up to £9k additional bonus potential
• Overtime Pay: Get paid for any hours worked beyond your contracted hours at your normal hourly rate - no pre-approval required.

As well as,

• A commitment to prioritise your work life balance and respect of your time off.
• Two days off a week and one weekend off every six weeks.
• 50% off food and drinks (including alcohol) from day one at all three of our brands - Lounge, Cosy Club and Brightside
• Power over your pay with Wagestream.

Most importantly we will ensure you are made to feel welcome at Cosy Club Nottingham.

As our General Manager we look to you for accountability and instead of being confined to an office you play an active and passionate role in setting the scene for our guests across the whole site.

To join us, you need to be charming. To thrive, you need to have confidence in yourself and the ability to view every shift as an event. Leading from the front, you'll be adaptable, complementing and trusting your team to get things done but never hesitating to roll up your own sleeves. That's the secret to exceptional service - we never let our standards slip.

Above all, you know the importance of a warm welcome and why it needs no explanation; offering our guests exceptional and genuine service is all part of the escapism.
