Ever fancied running your own pub? If you’ve managed a hospitality environment and feel you’re ready to take on your own business, come and join the St Austell family and run one of our 170 venues across the South West.

We’ve got a new site in Dorset and we’re looking for a General Manager to take the reins and make a success of the business.

We’ve been in the business of running and supporting tenanted venues for over 160 years and so we know what it takes, and we know exactly how to support you. You’re already an expert in the hospitality arts and so we’ll help bring out your creativity and the entrepreneurial spirit that will result in a successful venue.

We have pubs that are loved by locals and visitors alike across the South West, and this role offers the opportunity to help write the success story of one of our newest sites.

We’ve won awards for the way we partner with our General Managers and tenants and the support we provide. Those who run a St Austell Pub have consistently reviewed the support and services we offer and the results have placed us higher than any other company reviewed.

You’ll be supported by Head Office teams, field-based Business Development Managers and training programmes and motivated by superb rewards packages including comprehensive benefits and an amazing bonus scheme which could see you earning over 50% of your salary.
