About the Role
Are you a passionate and creative General Manager looking for your next challenge? We’re looking for an ambitious pub leader to take the reins at The Elgin, one of Notting Hill’s best-loved pubs, and help shape its next chapter.
Situated on the corner of Ladbroke Grove, just moments from Notting Hill, The Elgin is a beautiful Victorian pub with bags of character, a loyal local following and huge potential. Combining traditional pub charm with a lively, contemporary atmosphere, it is a pub full of personality, serving fantastic fresh, seasonal food and expertly crafted cocktails, live sport, Sunday roasts and memorable private events.
As General Manager, you’ll have a fantastic pub to make your own, with a beautiful Victorian interior, a distinctive gin palace-style bar downstairs, two private dining rooms upstairs and a spacious outdoor terrace. Whether guests are joining us for a relaxed lunch, our famous Sunday roast, cocktails with friends, live sporting action or a special celebration, there’s always something happening at The Elgin.

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.
