Assistant Manager – South West London (Wimbledon, Kingston, Surbiton, Carshalton)
We’re looking for a motivated and experienced Assistant Manager to join and lead our teams in our stylish, fresh-food pubs in South West London—think Wimbledon, Kingston, Surbiton, and Carshalton.
You’ll have a genuine passion for exceptional customer service and a proactive approach to team management. 70% of our General Manager vacancies in the last financial year were filled with internal candidates, so if becoming a GM is your goal, we’ll support you every step of the way.
What We’re Looking For
Leadership & Adaptability You’ll have strong leadership skills and the confidence to think quickly and make decisions—previous experience leading a team is essential.
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.
People-Focused Culture Whether interacting with team members or guests, your enthusiasm and approachability will create a positive environment.
Big-Picture Thinking & Detail-Oriented You’ll champion high standards—spotting small details others may miss—and think strategically about how to improve the pub’s offerings, sales, and operations, including in a General Manager role.
Commitment to Growth You’ll take ownership of your development, pushing yourself to enhance your skills. We provide mentorship and support from your GM to help you succeed.
Team Training & Career Passion You’ll help train and empower your team, ensuring they deliver exceptional customer experiences, while remaining committed to long-term career development in hospitality. We’ll support your growth with ongoing training programs.
