About Us
Stonegate Group is the UK’s largest operator of pubs, bars, and late-night venues, including Slug & Lettuce, Be At One, and Popworld, to name a few. We’re proud of our diverse portfolio and deeply committed to creating an inclusive culture that embraces individuality in all its forms—including neurodiversity. By fostering an environment where everyone feels welcome, valued, and supported, we reflect the vibrant communities we serve and empower our people to thrive.
The Opportunity
Located in the heart of London’s West End, Soho is one of the capital’s most vibrant and diverse neighbourhoods. Famous for its nightlife, hospitality, theatres, restaurants and longstanding LGBTQIA+ community, the area attracts a lively mix of Londoners, workers and visitors throughout the week. With Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square just minutes away, it’s a fast-paced, energetic place to work at the centre of London’s entertainment scene.
Rupert Street Bar is one of Soho’s longest-established and most recognisable LGBTQIA+ venues, located in the heart of London’s West End. Operating from one main bar with no food offer, the business is focused entirely on drinks, atmosphere and great service. Famous for its Soho Happy Hour, Rupert Street attracts a loyal customer base alongside strong passing trade, creating a lively, fast-paced and energetic atmosphere throughout the week.
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.
About You
Opportunities to lead a venue like Rupert Street don’t come around often, and therefore we’re looking for a genuinely high-performing leader with the ambition, energy and commercial instinct to take the business forward. You’ll be entrepreneurial and self-reliant, taking full ownership for building sales and identifying opportunities. You’ll thoroughly understand Soho, its LGBTQIA+ community and the demographic we serve, while having the foresight to see where the market and customer will be in 18 months to two years. You’ll have a proven track record of delivering green compliance alongside strong commercial results, with the ability to establish excellent operational standards within your first six weeks while maintaining and accelerating sales growth. Above all, we’re looking for someone who doesn’t simply manage a successful venue, but has the vision and drive to make it even more successful.
Please Note: To be eligible to apply, you MUST hold a valid Personal Licence.
