Position: General Manager – Premium Cocktail Bar

We’re recruiting a General Manager for an iconic late-night venue in Liverpool, renowned for its sophisticated atmosphere, live music offering and high-end cocktail experience.

Please note:
We are unable to offer sponsorship for this role and candidates must have the right to work in the UK without visa sponsorship. If you require Sponsorship please do not apply, thank you.

This is a standout opportunity to take full ownership of a well-established, premium hospitality concept, combining refined service with vibrant evening trade.

The venue attracts a loyal, discerning clientele and prides itself on quality, consistency and an exceptional guest journey from arrival to last orders.

What’s on offer:

  • A flagship venue with a strong brand and reputation
  • Full autonomy to lead, shape and develop the operation
  • A high-profile role in Liverpool’s hospitality scene
  • A professional, quality-focused business with ambition

As General Manager, you’ll be responsible for the overall performance of the venue, leading from the front and setting the tone for service, standards and culture.

You’ll oversee day-to-day operations, financial performance, team leadership and guest experience, while working closely with senior stakeholders to drive continued success and evolution.

The ideal candidate will be an experienced General Manager from a quality bar, cocktail lounge or members’ club background, with a strong understanding of premium service, people management and commercial performance.

You’ll be confident, charismatic and highly organised, with the ability to balance atmosphere with operational excellence.

As General Manager you will:

  • Take full responsibility for the overall performance and day-to-day operation of the venue
  • Lead, inspire and develop the management and front-of-house teams
  • Deliver a consistently high-end guest experience aligned with the venue’s brand
  • Oversee financial performance, including budgets, costs and profitability
  • Drive standards of service, presentation and atmosphere across all trading periods
  • Manage staffing, rotas and labour in line with business needs
  • Ensure compliance with licensing, health & safety and company procedures
  • Act as the main point of contact for senior stakeholders and partners

If you’re a General Manager looking for a new challenge within a premium, late-night hospitality environment, this is an outstanding opportunity to take the reins of a truly special venue.

Due to the number of applicants received, unfortunately we are unable to reply individually to each. Should your application be suitable for the role, then you’ll hear from us within 48 hours, thank you.
