As an Area Manager with Harvester you’ll lead a district of 11 businesses in our South West & South Central area, where- one thing is for sure- no two days are the same! Through your passion, experience and leadership, you’ll inspire your teams to grow and develop, serve up great guest experiences and smash targets each and every day. But most importantly- you'll know how to have fun and celebrate success as a team when all the hard work pays off.

This district takes in some fantastic locations: Sailsbury, Torquay, Oxford, Bristol, Somerset, Reading, Wiltshire, Bristol, Swindon and Plymouth.

Join us at Harvester, the nation's family favourite for feel good dining, where fresh is best.  Our restaurants focus on freshly cooked delicious food from the Grill, our famous unlimited salad bar and of course fantastic guest service & our spirit generous hospitality.

What’s in it for me… 

• Generous Bonus Scheme – We’re all about rewarding the hard work everybody puts in
• Flexible working – to fit around the other important things in life
• Buy up to an extra 2 weeks holiday – life is for living after all
• Structured development and support- so you can get to where you want to go
• Celebrating success– award nights, away days and team socials (work hard, play hard!)
• Private medical and Dental Plans - to keep you safe, secure and always smiling
• On top of all this, we offer a pension, 26 days paid holiday, bank holidays, high-street shopping discounts and we even give you free shares! 

What will I be doing…?

Your job will be so varied and rewarding that this little taster will never do it justice, but we'll give it our best shot.

• Making sure your teams bring their ‘A’ game when it comes to food, drink and service quality, always delivered with passion and pride
• Leading a diverse team of roughly 400 across 11 sites in our South West & South Central District
• Driving people succession through your district through coaching and mentoring
• You’ll spend time across your district supporting your teams, making sure they’re the best they can be and working together to deliver results to be proud of
• Driving a commercial culture- where delivering consistent high standards, sales and profit are at the heart of everything we do
• You’ll ensure your teams maintain a safe, clean and risk-free environment

What do I need…?

Just like our brands, our teams are diverse. You’ll...  

• Be able to recruit, retain and engage the best of the best
• Be an inspiring leader that demonstrates drive, energy and commitment 
• Share the bigger picture to inspire and empower your team  
• Have a good grasp of Harvester  offer and guest profile
• Have proven track record of delivering sales and profit building in a multi-site environment
• Have strong analytical, problem solving and decision-making skills

What makes Mitchells & Butlers a great place to work? 

To us, a career isn’t just about ‘clocking in’. We really care about our colleagues, and we’re an employer that keeps a promise. In fact, as one of the largest employers in the country, with over 44,000 people working for us, we have the responsibility of valuing every contribution from a diverse workforce that are representative of our guests, and who make us stronger. 

At M&B we value the unique perspectives each person brings. We believe that by fostering a culture of inclusion, respect, and allyship, we create a sense of belonging, engagement and teamwork which are essential to delivering great guest experiences. Join us and be a part of a great team.

You don’t have to take our word for it, why not take a look on social @LifeAtMab and find out what it’s really like to work with us.
