Ensure consistently high standards across the bar, coffee operation, pizza kitchen, brewery and customer areas.
Lead, coach and develop the team to deliver exceptional hospitality, ensuring everyone understands the importance of putting the customer first.
Take responsibility for the financial and administrative performance of the Tap House, including payroll, stock control, purchasing and budgets, while ensuring commercial decisions never compromise the customer experience.
