We’re looking for a passionate and dynamic General Manager to lead the thriving team at The Bluebird Inn. The Bluebird Inn is a superb 20-bedroom property located between Blackburn and Preston. With the busy commuting route of the M6 nearby, adjacent commercial business parks, and local trade from Mellor and the surrounding locale, there’s a broad array of customer groups to target and maximise.

To succeed in this role, you should have proven experience managing multi-unit teams in a fast-paced environment. Experience with letting rooms is beneficial but not essential.

- Excellent bonus earning potential
- Live in accommodation
- Healthcare Cash Plan giving you access to a 24-hour GP service and the ability to claim money back for dentist, eyecare and other medical appointments for you and your family
- 30% discount on food and drink across our pubs, inns and hotels for you and friends and family
