General Manager – The Waterside Inn, Leigh ⚓️
We are looking for a powerhouse General Manager to take the helm at Leigh’s premier canal-side venue. This isn't an "office job"—we need a leader who lives on the floor, loves the buzz, and knows exactly how to drive a business forward.
The Role
You’ll be responsible for the day-to-day success of The Waterside. From leading a fast-paced team to ensuring every guest has a top-tier experience, you’ll be the face of the venue.
What we need from you:
- Hands-on Leadership: You lead from the front. Whether it's pulling pints during a rush or clearing tables on the terrace, you’re never "too big" for any task.
- Finance Minded: You need to be sharp with the numbers. We’re looking for someone who understands GP margins, labor costs, and stock control like the back of their hand.
- Experience: Proven experience managing a high-volume food and drink venue.
- The Vibe: You’re fun-loving and energetic. You know how to keep a team motivated when the pressure is on.
- Sense of Humour: Essential. If you can't have a laugh while working hard, this isn't the place for you.
- Flexibility: This is hospitality—weekends, evenings, and holidays are when we shine, so you’ll need to be right there with us.
The Mission:
To keep The Waterside Inn at the top of its game, maintaining our high standards while keeping a firm grip on the bottom line.
