Salary - Up to £42,000 per annum plus bonuses
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
Popworld Sheffield is one of the city's most loved late-night venues, known for its legendary party atmosphere, iconic pop anthems and packed dancefloor. Situated in the heart of Sheffield's vibrant nightlife, we attract a diverse mix of students, professionals, partygoers and celebration groups, creating an energetic, high-volume environment where no two nights are ever the same.
We're looking for an experienced General Manager who thrives in late-night hospitality and enjoys bringing people together to create exceptional experiences. This is an opportunity to take ownership of a business with huge potential, nurture a talented team and play an important role in the continued success of one of Sheffield's best-known nightlife destinations.
Sheffield is one of the UK's most exciting hospitality cities, with a thriving social scene, over 60,000 students and a growing professional community. From major sporting events and live music to festivals, Freshers' Week and packed weekends, the city provides endless opportunities to build guest loyalty, grow the business and make a real impact.
