About Stonegate Group
Stonegate Group is the UK’s largest operator of pubs, bars, and late-night venues. We’re proud of our diverse portfolio and deeply committed to creating an inclusive culture that embraces individuality. By fostering an environment where everyone feels welcomed, valued, and supported, we reflect the vibrant communities we serve and empower our people to thrive.
The Opportunity
We are seeking an experienced Regional Manager to oversee Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Dudley and surrounding areas, providing support to multiple publicans and businesses within the Core L&T Division.
Your primary focus is to drive a quality, robust strategic plan for your region, aimed at increasing "whole pub profit" per publican—benefiting profitability and improving like-for-like income.
To deliver growth objectives, you’ll need to:
- Recruit and develop capable, well-funded publicans, ensuring they are equipped to excel.
- Maintain high property standards across all leased and tenanted pubs to safeguard asset value.
- Uphold retail excellence by offering strategic advice, conducting regular business reviews, and fostering skill development.
Your approach: Cookie-cutter solutions won’t suffice. You must implement a bespoke retailing strategy while ensuring compliance with the Pubs Code. Critical tasks include:
- Documenting clear and compliant meeting minutes for all business reviews, ensuring alignment with legal standards.
- Fair treatment of publicans, helping them achieve business goals.
- Regular performance reviews to identify growth opportunities, followed by structured action plans to meet targets.
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.
If a publican fails to exploit commercial potential, the process will be challenging but constructive, encouraging progress without compromising professionalism.
Your role also involves collaborating closely with:
- Pub Support Centre functions
- Key suppliers
- Ensuring procurement goals and operational excellence are met, with partnership alignment driving regional success.
