The Garrison on Bermondsey Street is a true food lover’s destination. Featured in the Michelin Guide, we are proudly food-led, championing outstanding British seasonal ingredients and offering a daily fish counter showcasing the very best seafood from the British Isles.

We are now looking for an exceptional  Assistant General Manager to join our talented front-of-house team and play a key role in the continued success of this much-loved Bermondsey Street institution.

The ideal candidate will have proven experience supporting the running of a food-focused pub or restaurant and be passionate about delivering an outstanding, guest-first experience across both bar and dining spaces. You will have a strong understanding of the commercial and operational aspects of hospitality, including stock control, compliance, team development, and wider business performance, with the confidence to support BOH operations where required.

Working alongside Head Chef Natalie Coleman — MasterChef winner 2013, AA Rosette recipient 2023, Best Chef at the Great British Pub Awards 2022, and winner of Food Pub of the Year 2023 at the Young’s Awards — you will help lead and inspire a passionate team committed to excellence. This is an exciting opportunity for a hospitality professional who thrives in a high-quality, food-led environment and wants to be part of something special.

Located moments from London Bridge, Borough Market and The Shard, The Garrison offers a supportive, ambitious and award-winning workplace where managers, chefs and FOH teams are encouraged to grow, develop and progress their careers.

This is a fantastic opportunity to help shape the future of one of South London’s most respected gastro pubs.
We look forward to hearing from you.
