The Role Outline: Your Shift at a Glance
As our Pub and Grill Assistant Manager, you are the operational powerhouse of the department. While the pub is your main domain, you operate with total flexibility across all Food and Beverage areas. You will step up as a Duty Manager, own the shift, champion our local marketing, and act as the vital bridge between the Manager's strategy and the team's execution on the floor.
Why Village?
At Village, we do hospitality a little differently. We are all about personality, genuine connections, and creating great experiences for our guests and each other. That is why we back our teams to be themselves, take ownership, learn new skills, and grow their careers. Previous experience is great, but your attitude and energy matter much more to us. If you are friendly, positive, love working with people, and enjoy being part of a busy team, we will give you all the support, training, and opportunities you need. Because it really does take a Village.
How The Village Thrives
We live our culture through four simple commitments:
- We Can & We Do: We show up to make a genuine difference and do fantastic work everyday, with purpose.
- We Will: Treat each other with respect and dignity. No ego, no drama. We try our best and look out for each other.
- We Care: We care about our impact on guests, the community, and each other.
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.
Your Shift: What You’ll Actually Be Doing
As our Pub and Grill Assistant Manager, you are the engine of the shift. We trust you to handle:
- The Operational Lead: Running the floor as a Duty Manager. You will predominantly own the Pub and Grill but confidently float across all F&B areas to support the wider hotel. You will lead high-energy pre-shift briefings and translate commercial strategy into action.
- The Commercial Control: Protecting the bottom line. You will monitor wage costs using tools like TnA, keep stock replenished to exact par levels, safely authorise voids and refunds, and know exactly which drinks drive the highest Gross Profit to support our EBITDA targets.
- The Local Buzz: Acting as our social media champion and driving our outreach plan. You will create online noise to support our events and push the team to deliver the kind of service that secures a top 10 spot on Trip Advisor.
- The People Development: Coaching the team in real time. You will assist in recruiting high performers, foster a culture of serious product knowledge, and review performance to ensure internal development is a constant priority.
