Assistant Manager
The Jolly Sailor, Davenport
£14.40 per hour + excellent tips (up to £3 per hour) + real opportunities to progress
Love hospitality? Ready to lead a busy, successful pub where your opinion matters?
We're looking for an Assistant Manager to join the team at The Jolly Sailor - one of Stockport's busiest destination pubs, famous for fantastic food, brilliant service and a genuinely great team.
This isn't a role where you'll spend your day hidden in an office. You'll be out on the floor leading the team, creating memorable experiences for our guests and making sure every shift runs brilliantly. You'll work alongside an experienced management team who will support your development, trust you to make decisions and help you build your career.
Why join Almond Family Pubs?
We're a family-owned independent business with five award-winning pubs across Stockport.
- No head office bureaucracy.
- No faceless corporate culture.
- Just people who genuinely care about their teams, their guests and doing things properly.
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.
