Job description

Pub Overview

The Nags Head is in the pretty village of Hulland Ward in the heart of the Derbyshire Dales. Hulland Ward lies approximately 4 miles East of Ashbourne on the A517 and 10 miles North of Derby. There are many villagers within a 20-minute walk-time who are looking for a premium experience and good quality food offer. Within a 20 minute drive-time, the catchment includes a significant proportion of professional families. These families will become integral to the destination food marketing plan.

It is a traditional village pub offering quality cask ales, premium lagers and a choice of good quality wines. Their home-cooked menu is popular and drives destination trade. The real crowd-pleasers are the Thursday evening Pie Night and the Friday Pizza and curry takeaway. Not forgetting the Traditional Sunday Lunch on offer every week.

The Pub is also a great hub for the community and their community-based sports teams include boule, darts and dominos.

Home-cooked food and quality cask ales help to set this pub aside from the competition. We would expect the next operator to continue to drive this offer and become an integral part of the local community.

We’re always open to new ideas, what would you do to drive trade?

Attitude is more valuable than experience. If you’ve got the following, we’d love to hear from you.

• Understanding of the local community
• You know what it takes to build a successful business
• You love hospitality and are great with customers

If this sounds like the incredible pub opportunity you’ve been waiting for, apply today and tell us what you can bring to this pub’s next chapter...
