Bar Manager or Bar Supervisor Mixologist - up to £44,000 per year - Central London
A Bar Manager or Bar Supervisor accomplished in leading cocktail bars reporting directly to the General Manager.
We are looking for an experienced Bar Manager or Bar Supervisor from a recognised high-street brand to lead a small, speakeasy basement cocktail bar in an independently owned Lebanese and French-inspired restaurant in Central London. You will need at least two years of bar management experience, a considered career that has moved consistently upward, and the kind of hands-on mixology skills that set a standard for a small team. You will support the leadership of a front-of-house team of ten to fifteen colleagues and manage a bar team of three. This is a Mayfair independent now moving towards its third opening — if you are career-driven, genuinely engaged and looking for a role where you can grow with the business, be central to new-site openings, and develop in time into a more senior multi-site position, this is the right opportunity.
The Role:
Full-time, hands-on and accountable. You will take ownership of the guest experience and service standards within the bar, as well as supporting the wider business administration: health and safety compliance, team training and development. The restaurant is open seven days a week from 12pm; the kitchen closes at 10:30pm Monday to Saturday (Sunday lunch service only). The downstairs cocktail bar operates under a late licence — last orders at midnight, with closing at 1am on busy Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, and between 11pm and midnight on weekday evenings. The role is fully hands-on in service.
Your Experience:
Bar Manager or Bar Supervisor with specific experience in cocktail bars. Longevity in roles, with demonstrable accomplishments year on year. Strong hands-on mixology with a track record of recruiting and developing a bar team in a known high street cocktail bar brand.
About you:
Strong leadership and communication skills. Lead from the front, mentor your team, and review and report on weekly performance. A genuine eye for detail and a guest-first mentality.
Drop me a note and I'll pick up a call with you, present the business to you and talk through the opportunity or any other position that we feel will offer career development.
