Job description

Capex Investment due Feb 2026 to transform the Heath Hotel into our 'Grandstand' format – the place where every game and event feels epic! With huge screens, top‑tier entertainment, great food & drink, and an unbeatable atmosphere. Now we're looking for a dynamic pub partner to be part of it.

At our Grandstand pubs we don't just show live sport – we live it. From football to live music, this is where fans belong, and where your next partnership could belong too.

Currently The Heath is a community pub situated in the heart of Heath, Cardiff, a short five‑minute drive from the city centre. It is close to the University Hospital of Wales and Cardiff University and is popular with students, NHS workers and loyal locals.

The pub provides a spacious two‑bar operation, currently trading at £10,000 per week with an 85% wet / 15% dry sales mix. This is set to increase with the imminent capex.

The successful operator will need to be sports‑driven, have food experience, and be able to market sporting events, stay ahead of fixtures and bring the community together to enjoy the immersive experience at our Grandstand pubs.

What's in it for you?

• 22% share of weekly sales (excluding VAT) plus a guaranteed annual retained sum of £25 000 (released weekly)
• Low ingoing costs, deposits starting from £5 000 and £360 legal cost (deposits may vary – ask for details)
• Accommodation included with most bills covered, except council tax & TV licence

If this is not the pub for you, do you know someone who might be interested? If so, let us know using our Refer a Friend scheme and, if they are offered, we will give you a £1 000 gift card (terms & conditions apply).
