Assistant Manager – Gaming & Entertainment Venue in London
We run one of London's most exciting gaming bars. Late nights, competitive tournaments, themed events, and a crowd that genuinely loves being here. We're growing fast — and we need an Assistant Manager who can own the full operational picture of the venue.
What you'll do
- Manage the day-to-day running of the venue, ensuring smooth service across the floor, bar, and kitchen
- Supervise and coordinate waiters, bartenders, and kitchen staff, stepping in to serve guests and work the floor yourself when needed
- Oversee purchasing and stock control, liaising with suppliers to keep the venue fully stocked
- Manage the POS and booking systems, ensuring accurate use across the team and resolving issues as they arise
- Greet guests, take orders, and serve food and drinks when covering the floor
- Handle payments accurately and train staff on POS procedures
- Ensure tables, bar areas, and other venue spaces are clean, well-presented, and running to standard
- Oversee setup of PCs and consoles for guests and troubleshoot as needed
