Assistant General Manager – Premium Dining
Location: Manchester
Salary: Up to £47,500
The Opportunity
I’m working with a fantastic premium restaurant and bar in Manchester looking for an experienced Assistant General Manager to join the team.
This is a hands-on, floor-focused role where you’ll work closely with the General Manager, taking real ownership of the day-to-day operation.
You’ll lead from the front across service, onboarding, training, and people development, ensuring the team consistently delivers a brilliant guest experience.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
