Job Description

We're looking for an Extra Special General Manager for one of our most successful businesses within the whole Company! Salary up to £55K + bonus and a generous benefits package.

Marston's is one of the UK's largest and most beloved pub chains, operating more than 1,300 pubs, bars, and hotels. We are seeking a great General Manager to lead at the Vikings Landing in Liverpool and drive continued success!

What you get

At Marston's, we're a big family. We prioritize our people, offering benefits such as:

  • Additional earnings potential through bonus and incentive schemes
  • Marston's Cheers Platform, offering discounts at major retailers
  • Access to a pension plan
  • On-site accommodation
  • Private healthcare
  • Award-winning training and development

About the pub

The Vikings Landing is an open-plan carvery site with a centrally located L-shaped bar, a generous beer garden, and children's play equipment. Located on the edge of an industrial estate and near residential areas, it benefits from high passing trade and a diverse local demographic.

This site currently trades approximately £50,000 weekly, with a split of 40% wet and 60% dry, aiming to reach £2 million in annual sales. It's a flagship in the North West and across the company, with growth potential through excellent hospitality and expanding low-sales periods, including evenings and midweek activities.

We seek a strong, guest-focused operator; previous management experience at a similar-sized site is essential. Knowledge of the area is an advantage but not required.

Three-bedroom management accommodation is available.

Have you got what it takes?

Being a Pub Manager is demanding but rewarding. You'll bring energy and ideas, adding your personality to delight customers. You'll enjoy growing the business, leading from the front, and nurturing your team.

As a General Manager, you'll:

  • Care about finding, growing, and engaging your team
  • Be accountable for running all aspects of your pub
  • Be passionate about doing right by your staff and customers
  • Think creatively to increase sales and growth
  • Create a lively, enjoyable atmosphere

Are we right for you?

Our destination pubs serve classic and innovative dishes, complemented by a diverse drinks portfolio including brands like Estrella, Hobgoblin, craft ales, and beers. We offer a unique Marston's atmosphere, providing a challenging yet secure career path. Support from your area manager is always available.
