Experienced Operator
Trading style
The pub is the perfect example of a real ‘Hub of the Community style operation, from having a drink with friends in the bar to watching live artists or a big match, it really is a REAL community pub ensuring every individual living nearby has a reason to visit. The landlords want all existing and potential customers to feel part of what is a busy, thriving gem of the community and to enjoy the pub for all occasions. The pub will need to trade with a successful rhythm of the week including live sports, pub teams, and entertainment. In addition, the promotion of the separate function room for key family events will be a regular and important income stream for the business. There is no food offered at present and investment into a kitchen would be required to exploit this aspect of trade. Currently, no cask ale is offered and this would be an area that would benefit the business going forward.
The successful applicant(s) will be outgoing, lively, personable, enthusiastic, and driven and will be as passionate as the landlords are about creating something special within the community. They will preferably have a proven track record in operating successful community pubs and running events, utilising social media, maximising footfall for sporting events, booking live artists/bands, creating promotional/marketing plans, developing a food offering, and establishing a strong position within the community, all whilst developing/leading a great in-house team.
A personal licence is required alongside exceptional standards and some experience with real ale, current trends (gin, craft ale, and lager, wines, and cider), and organising events such as family fun days and beer/cider festivals. Experience would not be absolutely necessary but a keen interest in becoming part of the community is an essential quality.
