Food and Beverage General Manager at Northern Roots

We are looking for a passionate, ambitious and experienced General Manager to lead the front‑of‑house operation of our new café, retail offer, visitor hospitality, bookings and events.

Northern Roots is creating the UK’s largest urban farm and eco‑park on 160 acres of underused green space in Oldham, Greater Manchester – a unique community hub and visitor destination. The charity aims to benefit the environment, and to improve the health, wellbeing and livelihoods of local communities. Food is at the heart of our vision.

Based in our new Welcome Building, the café will showcase produce grown on site in our Urban Farm alongside produce from other local suppliers, providing visitors with a warm welcome that reflects the ambition of the wider Northern Roots project.

We are working with a well‑known local Chef‑Partner to develop the concept for the Café. Working alongside the Chef‑Partner and Head Chef, you’ll lead front‑of‑house operations, retail, visitor hospitality, bookings and events, helping to create a café known for its quality, warmth and attention to detail.

If you’re passionate about hospitality, leadership and community, we’d love to hear from you.
