Love hospitality? Ready to lead a busy, successful pub where your opinion matters?
We're looking for an Assistant Manager to join the team at The Jolly Sailor - one of Stockport's busiest destination pubs, famous for fantastic food, brilliant service and a genuinely great team.
This isn't a role where you'll spend your day hidden in an office.
You'll be out on the floor leading the team, creating memorable experiences for our guests and making sure every shift runs brilliantly.
You'll work alongside an experienced management team who will support your development, trust you to make decisions and help you build your career.
Why join Almond Family Pubs?
We're a family-owned independent business with five award-winning pubs across Stockport.
No head office bureaucracy.
No faceless corporate culture.
Just people who genuinely care about their teams, their guests and doing things properly.
When you join us you'll receive:
· Excellent tips of up to £3 per hour
· 50% off food for you and three guests in every Almond pub
· Flexible rotas that support a healthy work/life balance
· Free meals and drinks on shift
· Ongoing leadership training and genuine career progression
· Recognition awards and regular team celebrations
· A supportive management team that wants you to succeed
What you'll be doing
You'll help lead one of our busiest pubs by:
· Leading confident, organised shifts
· Supporting and coaching the team every day
· Delivering brilliant guest experiences
· Resolving issues quickly and professionally
· Maintaining exceptional standards
· Supporting recruitment, training and onboarding
· Helping achieve labour, sales and service targets
· Being someone your team enjoys working with
We'd love to hear from you if you...
· Have experience supervising or managing in hospitality
· Enjoy leading from the front
· Stay calm when things get busy
· Love developing people
· Take pride in great service
· Want to build a long-term career rather than just another job
About you
You're someone who naturally motivates others.
You notice the little things.
You take ownership.
You care about your guests and your team equally.
If that sounds like you, we'd love to meet you.
Ready for your next challenge?
