The posting

Company Description

Newnham Court Inn, Maidstone

Assistant Manager

Salary - £31,000 - £35,000 + Bonus

Love great hospitality, enjoy leading a team and want to be part of a pub where great food is at the heart of everything? Join us at the Newnham Court Inn!

Located on the outskirts of Maidstone, just 10 minutes from the town centre, the Newnham Court Inn is a welcoming pub restaurant with a real passion for chargrilled food.

From hearty steaks and tasty burgers to perfectly cooked ribeye for a special occasion, our expert grill chefs serve up dishes guests love. With a relaxing beer garden, dog-friendly areas and plenty of space for families and groups, we're a great place to come together and enjoy good food and great company.

We're looking for an enthusiastic Assistant Manager to support the General Manager, inspire our team and help deliver brilliant guest experiences.

Job Description

What's the opportunity?

As Assistant Manager, you'll play a key role in the day-to-day running of the pub, helping to maintain high standards, develop your team and drive business performance.

  • Lead from the front: Motivate and inspire the team to deliver excellent service and create a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
  • Help run a busy pub: Support the General Manager with daily operations, leading shifts and ensuring everything runs smoothly.
  • Put guests first: Make every visit memorable, whether guests are joining us for a steak, a family celebration or a relaxing drink in the beer garden.
  • Drive results: Help manage sales, labour costs, stock and profitability, making the most of opportunities to grow the business.
  • Develop your people: Coach and support team members, helping them build confidence and progress in their careers.
  • Maintain high standards: Take pride in cleanliness, safety, compliance and the overall presentation of the pub.
  • Work as one team: Build strong relationships across the business and create a positive, supportive team culture.

Qualifications

What we're looking for

Ideally, you'll have previous management or supervisory experience in hospitality, such as a pub, restaurant or similar environment, and be ready to take the next step in your career.

You'll bring:

  • A passion for hospitality and delivering outstanding guest experiences.
  • Strong leadership and people-management skills.
  • A hands-on approach and the confidence to lead by example.
  • Good commercial awareness and an understanding of sales, costs and profitability.
  • Excellent organisation and the ability to make decisions in a fast-paced environment.
  • A positive attitude and a genuine desire to develop your team.

📋 Personal Licence

As this role may involve covering the business in the General Manager's absence, you'll need to be eligible to hold a Personal Licence. You don't need to have one when you apply. If you're successful, Greene King will support you through the process of obtaining your licence.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
