The role

We're looking for an experienced and commercially minded operator to take the helm of this established hotel and hospitality business. Ideally, you'll have a proven track record of growing sales, increasing hotel room occupancy, and driving profitability across multiple revenue streams.

What makes this opportunity particularly exciting is the significant sales growth potential available over the coming year. Achievable targets have been set, providing a clear roadmap for success while leaving ample opportunity for an ambitious operator to exceed expectations. By enhancing the food offer, driving accommodation occupancy, and maximising the site's community and destination appeal, there is substantial scope to increase turnover and profitability.

This opportunity would suit a hospitality professional with experience in food-led businesses and hotel operations who is passionate about delivering outstanding guest experiences while growing a sustainable, successful business.

  • Care about finding, growing and engaging your team.
  • Be accountable for running all aspects of your pub.
