Job Description

We are seeking an exceptional, commercially driven General Manager to manage a central London livery hall. This is not a "business as usual" role. You will lead an operation within a stunning heritage setting, overseeing high-end corporate dining, formal banqueting, and events. You will have full autonomy to shape the venue's future, driving sales growth while maintaining the impeccable service standards. This is mainly a Monday to Friday operation.

What You'll Do
  • Commercial Leadership: Take full P&L ownership. You aren't just managing costs; you are architecting revenue growth through proactive sales strategies and savvy performance management.
  • Operational Excellence: Elevate premium service delivery across all touchpoints, from daily corporate hospitality to formal banquets.
  • Strategic Direction: Set the site's vision, working closely with stakeholders to ensure the venue remains the first choice for high-profile City events.
  • Team Empowerment: Mentor and develop a team, fostering a high-performance culture that "leads from the front".
Who You Are
  • The Pro: You have a proven track record as a GM or Senior Operator in high-end, high-volume catering or prestigious event venues.
  • The Strategist: You possess deep financial acumen and can demonstrate how you've previously turned market challenges into revenue opportunities.
  • The Diplomat: You are a natural at building high-level stakeholder relationships, comfortably navigating the complexities of a heritage environment.
  • The Leader: Highly accountable and resilient, you thrive on the floor during service just as much as you do in a boardroom setting.
