Ready to take the step up into your first General Manager role?

  • Take full accountability for health & safety and operational excellence
  • Build strong local partnerships with schools, clubs and the community
  • Manage the P&L and influence the commercial success of the business

What we're looking for

  • Commercially aware with a passion for both people and performance

This isn't just a job-it's your launchpad into senior leadership:

  • Supportive environment that invests in your development

The package

  • £45,000-£48,000 basic salary (depending on experience)

  • 28 days holiday
  • Cash plan benefits
  • Free on-site parking
