General Manager - Kings Reach, Biggleswade
We are looking for an experienced, dynamic General Manager to run the Kings Reach in Biggleswade. This amazing pub was opened as a new build in November 2018 and business has flourished at this Chicken and Grill concept since the opening.
A spacious and quirky British pub boasting a warm welcome with open fires. Just on the outskirts of the town centre, the A1 Retail Park, and the many houses locally, The King’s Reach is the first McMullen’s pub situated in the up-and-coming Biggleswade.
The venue has a strong wet/dry split and caters for over 2000 covers weekly, with sales topping £50k, achieved with a great and enthusiastic team of over 80.
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.
