General Manager – Flagship Free Roam VR Experience

Edinburgh

£40,000–£45,000 + performance bonus

About the Role

We are launching a flagship free-roam virtual reality venue in Edinburgh and are looking for an exceptional, hands-on General Manager to lead the business from pre-opening through launch and into full operations.

This is a rare opportunity to take full ownership of a new entertainment concept — with real autonomy to build the team, shape the customer experience, and drive commercial success from day one.

The role is highly technology-led, combining venue operations with hands-on use of VR systems, booking platforms and customer management tools. It would particularly suit someone who is confident with technology and enjoys working in a gaming, immersive or digitally-driven environment.

With ambitious expansion plans, this role offers clear progression into multi-site or regional leadership for the right candidate.

Key Responsibilities

Operations & Leadership

Lead venue setup, pre-opening activity and operational readiness
Run day-to-day operations, delivering a seamless, high-quality customer experience
Recruit, train and lead a high-performing on-site team
Act as the on-site business leader, driving standards, culture and performance
Oversee VR sessions and undertake basic technical troubleshooting to ensure smooth operation
Liaise with the franchise provider on system updates, gameplay changes and operational best practice

Commercial & Performance Management

Manage day-to-day commercial performance of the venue, ensuring strong revenue delivery and efficient operations
Drive bookings, utilisation and overall performance
Monitor commercial KPIs (occupancy, revenue, customer feedback, repeat bookings)
Prepare and present a monthly performance review pack, including KPIs, insights and actions
Develop and execute initiatives to maximise revenue (groups, parties, corporate events)

Marketing & Growth

Own and execute local marketing strategy in Edinburgh
Lead social media channels (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook)
Create engaging, high-quality content with team support
Build partnerships with schools, corporates and local event organisers
Drive awareness, footfall and repeat business

Compliance, Systems & Safety

Ensure health & safety standards are maintained at all times
Maintain high operational standards across equipment and venue environment
Strong ownership of booking systems, CRM and operational technology
Confidently manage systems and resolve issues in a fast-paced environment

Performance Bonus

Performance bonus linked to:

Revenue and booking growth
Customer reviews and ratings
Venue utilisation
Operational and launch milestones

Ideal Candidate

Proven experience managing a hospitality, leisure or customer-focused venue
Strong commercial mindset with experience managing KPIs and performance
Strong IT / systems capability – booking systems, troubleshooting issues and working with technology in a live environment
Strong leadership, able to build and motivate teams
Entrepreneurial mindset with a hands-on approach
Confident with social media and local marketing
Energetic, proactive and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
Available to work evenings, weekends and peak trading periods

Pay: £40,000.00-£45,000.00 per year

Work Location: In person
