General Manager

Join Fuller’s: Where the true you thrives and diversity is embraced. At Fuller’s we don't just offer jobs, we invite you to celebrate your authentic self. Our four core values – doing things the right way, being part of the family, celebrating individuality and always asking what’s next? – define the essence of who we are.
The Hercules enjoys a diverse customer base, welcoming local office workers, visitors from nearby hotels, tourists exploring the area and a loyal local community. Its broad appeal and strong reputation make it one of the most exciting businesses in our portfolio.
Whilst predominantly a wet-led business, The Hercules also delivers significant food volumes through an all-day dining offer, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner across multiple trading floors, complemented by extensive external dining. This role requires an experienced General Manager who is equally comfortable driving a vibrant drinks business whilst leading a high-volume, full table-service food operation. The successful candidate will understand how to maximise performance across a variety of trading spaces, adapting the offer throughout the day while consistently delivering exceptional guest experiences.
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.
