Speakeasy-Style Bar (Confidential Client)

£40,000 DOE+ Up to 25% Bonus

Hyered are working with an exciting, fast-growing hospitality group that’s looking for a talented and driven General Manager to lead one of their standout venues. This isn’t your typical high-street chain — this brand is all about 1920s-inspired, speakeasy-style charm. Think low lighting, live jazz, expertly crafted cocktails, and a strong focus on guest experience.

About the Venue

While the brand is currently operating under the radar, they’ve quickly become known for delivering memorable nights out in a uniquely atmospheric setting. Their venues blend vintage design with modern service standards, drawing in a diverse crowd who value quality, ambiance, and energy.

The Role

As General Manager, you’ll be the face and force behind the venue — leading a team, managing day-to-day operations, and ensuring the business hits its financial and service goals. This is a hands-on leadership role that offers the autonomy to truly make your mark while being backed by a forward-thinking and supportive senior team.

What’s on Offer

• Bonus structure worth up to 25% of salary — highly achievable and performance-based
• 28 days of holiday
• Clear career progression into the corporate side of the business as they scale
• A creative, people-first company culture that values leadership and initiative

What We’re Looking For

• Previous General Manager experience in a high-energy, guest-focused bar or hospitality venue
• Ideally someone who has managed a restaurant or bar with a kitchen
• A natural leader who can inspire and develop a team
• Strong commercial acumen with a passion for creating memorable customer experiences
• Background in cocktail-led, late-night, or concept-driven venues is a strong plus

If you’re ready to take the next step in your hospitality career and want to be part of a brand that’s going places, we'd love to hear from you. Let’s talk in confidence.
