We are looking for a talented General Manager to lead the team at a very special hotel: The Bell Inn at Stilton, near Peterborough.
This gem of a hotel has the real feel of a traditional Coaching Inn, a historic building which has been looked after and is fit to meet the needs of our 21st century guests. With an AA awarded Rosette restaurant this venue is well known for its great fresh food menu, it's well stocked bar serving the local community and tourists and it's friendly and welcoming team. We also have some great function space and are well used as a wedding and event space.
We are looking for a General Manager who has previous experience in managing a rosette awarded restaurant, is able to deliver high quality weddings and events and has the desire to lead and manage a great team in a really special hotel. Experience of managing rooms and understanding the financial management of a diverse business is also needed. You will also need to love your guests and have the desire to go above and beyond to make great memories for them. This is not an office based role, it is definitely managing by walking about- but we are also keen to protect a work /life balance as well.
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.
