Company Description
🌟 Ready to make your mark in one of Mayfair’s historic pubs?
If you’re an ambitious hospitality professional who lives and breathes hospitality, loves leading people and thrives in a busy pub environment, this could be your next big opportunity.
Dating all the way back to 1704, the Rose & Crown has a fascinating history and a fantastic location, sitting between Hyde Park and Green Park in the heart of Mayfair.
Once a weekly meeting place for artists and connoisseurs, today the Rose & Crown is a welcoming, family-friendly pub bringing together locals, visitors, sports fans and dog lovers — all looking for great drinks, great food and a warm welcome.
We’re looking for an Assistant Manager who can lead from the front, inspire the team and help drive the pub forward.
Want to take your development to the next level? We can support you to work towards a Level 3 or Level 4 apprenticeship alongside your role, delivered in partnership with Lifetime Training. It’s a great way to build your skills, gain a recognised qualification and continue progressing your career with Greene King.
Job Description
🍻 Why the Rose & Crown?
The Rose & Crown is a pub with serious character and a brilliant location.
With a wide selection of ales, traditional pub favourites, live sport across Sky Sports and TNT Sports and a welcoming atmosphere, there’s always a reason for customers to walk through the door.
From a traditional Turkey Dinner and succulent steaks to juicy burgers and fresh salads, our food offering gives customers plenty of choice, while the pub’s central Mayfair location brings a fantastic mix of customers and occasions.
And with Hyde Park and Green Park right on the doorstep, even the four-legged members of the family are welcome to join us for a pint!
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
