Company Description
We are looking for an assistant manager to be part of our fantastic team, helping to run the most famous pub in Stratford. Not only is this pub perfectly positioned a stones throw from the River Avon. Across the road there is the stunning Royal Shakespeare Theatre which brings theatre goers and is also frequented by the actors after the shows, as it has done for decades bringing in some of the famous faces we know and love today. Providing a superb experience for all that visit is our ultimate goal. Did you know that The Dirty Duck is also known as The Black Swan and is the only pub in England licensed under two names.
The pub will be undergoing a development shortly. A full freshen up both inside and out with our new Heritage look but importantly, without compromising the existing feel and character of the pub.
We are looking for a dynamic person to support the general manager in driving the business whilst ensuring that customer and team satisfaction is at the forefront of what we do.
As this pub sits in the heart of the tourist town of Stratford-upon-Avon, the ideal candidate will have experience of working in a fast paced environment, used to working within a large team and the knowledge of general pub operations.
Although experience of working as an assistant manager in a corporate pub company will be an advantage, we are also willing to give an opportunity to an experienced team leader who would like to further their career.
Participate in our bonus scheme and earn quarterly bonuses or bank them to receive an enhanced annual bonus at the end of the year.
We know parking can be an issue and as such we will provide parking at our sister pub a 5 min walk away if needed.
As Assistant Manager, you’ll be at the heart of our management team helping to ensure the smooth running of a busy pub. From the moment you step through the door, you lead by example making sure our Customers, and teams, have a great time.
Join us at Greene King pubs, where we have always been the beacon for communities, wherever people want to come together. We boast a number of historic pubs that have seen hundreds of years of famous patrons passing through the doors, from Dickens drawing inspiration in the thick of Victorian London, to Frances Crick announcing the world-changing discovery of DNA. Our pubs are steeped in rich history but blend tradition with forward-thinking innovation, serving up pub classics made with care and delivering good, old-fashioned service.
