Running a Pub for Young's: We believe pubs should be differentiated and individual and so we are looking for entrepreneurial General Managers to put their own stamp on our businesses. We're all about freedom within a framework - you decide what goes on the food menu - and that doesn't mean picking from a bank of recipes! You tailor your offer to your guests and grow the business in line with your business vision! You decide what events and sales driving to do, what the team uniform is, and look after all your own recruitment and marketing. If you are a people-focused Pub General Manager with fresh food experience, then we want to hear from you.

- Huge annual bonus potential - up to 100% of your salary!
- Private Health Insurance
- Enhanced Company Pension Scheme
- Life Assurance Scheme
- 20% discount in all Young's pubs and 30% discount on overnight stays in our Pubs with Rooms
- Access to our Share Save Scheme
- Access to our Career Pathway and Training and Development Courses

You will have a genuine passion for exceptional customer service and a pro-active approach to team management.
