General Manager Vacancy

The Vaults, Southsea 

An exciting opportunity has become available to become the new General Manager of The Vaults in Southsea. Following a full refurbishment, The Vaults has established itself once again as the most famous pub on the well-known Southsea social hub that is Albert Road.

A meeting place for friends and family alike and located alongside many independent businesses, it is essential that The Vaults creates its own identity and USP in a competitive marketplace, as well as fitting with the trendy, and eclectic vibe of the community. The area has been described as exciting, Bohemian, contemporary, highly diverse and unique to Portsmouth and Southsea, and with Portsmouth recently being voted the second "Coolest place in Britain" the new General Manager will have their finger on the pulse of all new trends, whether it's entertainment, marketing, or products.

This is a fast-paced wet led business that really comes to life in the evening and weekends. With a purpose-built craft beer bar ''The Beer Vaults'', it has established itself as the place to visit in Southsea to find the latest craft beer releases from the most cutting-edge breweries. The menu is based on the Craft concept and makes use of a pizza oven, there is scope to create a food offering which really complements the thriving bar trade. The Vaults also offers live music with jazz nights and local musicians.

With yearly links with large-scale festivals such as Victorious and Ice Breaker, it is essential that the General Manager is successful at planning and executing high footfall events. We are looking for someone who is driven and entrepreneurial, and who enjoys the excitement and challenge that comes with running a busy high-street business. The successful candidate will be someone who can build strong relationships within a community of big personalities, become an important part of this dynamic neighbourhood, and establish The Vaults as THE place to be.

Ultimately, the smiles on faces, the return visits and the positive reviews are all down to you - making this one of the most rewarding jobs in the hospitality business.

For any General Manager, Fuller’s is a special company to work for. You’ll get lots of help and support from our Support Office when you need it, but also plenty of encouragement to put your own spin on the pub.

You can take plenty of pride in the role too, knowing that Fuller’s ales, food and service has a reputation as some of the very best in the business.

You’ll need to be commercially minded, making the right decisions to keep customers pouring through the doors. Importantly though, you’ll be a people-person too - mindful that to many, you’re still a good old-fashioned ‘Landlord’.

And of course, you’ll have a team to look after. So, we’re looking for somebody with true leadership qualities – able to keep both the customers and the team smiling.
