General Manager – High-Performing Pub with Rooms - East Sussex - £65,000 + Bonus

We’re looking for an experienced General Manager to take the reins of a fantastic, established pub with rooms in Lewes.

This is a seriously strong business, capable of taking £100k in a week, with a brilliant reputation across food, drink and accommodation.

Importantly, the site is already overperforming against its targets – so you’re not walking into a turnaround.

The foundations are firmly in place, and with bonus linked to performance, you’ll be taking over a business where hitting bonus is very achievable.

The operation combines a busy pub and restaurant with a significant rooms business, so previous hotel, rooms or accommodation experience is essential.

We’re looking for a GM who:

• Has managed a high-volume pub, hotel or hospitality operation
• Has strong rooms/accommodation experience – this is essential
• Comes from a quality branded or structured hospitality background
• Is comfortable managing weekly sales that can reach £100k
• Has a strong understanding of food, drink and rooms revenue
• Is commercially sharp with a good handle on P&L, labour and margins
• Can lead, develop and retain a strong management and front-line team
• Knows how to maintain high standards while continuing to grow an already successful business

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants a sizeable GM role without having to spend their first six months fixing problems.

The business is performing, the bonus is genuinely achievable, and the opportunity is there to build on an already successful operation.
