The Opportunity

We are working with a fantastic independently run bar and restaurant in the heart of Buntingford to recruit a personable, enthusiastic and proactive Front of House Manager.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who genuinely enjoys hospitality, builds great relationships with customers and knows how to create a welcoming atmosphere. We are looking for a natural people person who leads by example, brings energy to the team and has the confidence to put forward ideas to improve the customer experience and the overall running of the venue.

You will play a key role in the day-to-day operation of the business, working closely with the owners to maintain high standards, develop the team and ensure every guest receives an outstanding experience. This is a hands-on position where your personality, initiative and ideas will be valued.

About the Venue

This is an independent, stylishly refurbished bar and restaurant that combines modern hospitality with traditional values and a strong sense of community.

The venue offers seasonal small plates, bespoke cocktails, live music and a relaxed but vibrant atmosphere, attracting a loyal local following. Every service brings something different, from busy Saturday evenings and events to relaxed weekday lunches.

The owners are experienced hospitality professionals with over 40 years of combined industry experience. They remain actively involved in the business and are passionate about creating a positive working environment where great people, quality food and drink, and excellent customer service come first.

What You Can Expect

  • £42,000-£45,000 basic salary plus tips, typically worth around £7,000 per year.
  • A hands-on leadership role with genuine scope to make a difference.
  • The opportunity to contribute ideas and influence the development of the business.
  • A supportive, approachable ownership team that values initiative and personality.
  • The chance to build and develop a close-knit front of house team.
  • A varied working environment across restaurant service, bar operations and live events.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead front of house operations, ensuring every service runs smoothly and efficiently.
  • Create a friendly, welcoming atmosphere where customers feel valued and want to return.
  • Build strong relationships with regular customers and develop the venue's local reputation.
  • Lead by example, motivating, coaching and developing the front of house team.
  • Maintain consistently high standards of service, presentation, cleanliness and professionalism.
  • Oversee bar operations, including cocktail preparation, drinks service and presentation.
  • Bring forward fresh ideas to improve service, customer satisfaction and the overall guest experience.
  • Work collaboratively with the owners and kitchen team to ensure a seamless service.
  • Assist with staff rotas, stock control, cash handling and daily financial procedures.
  • Take ownership of challenges during busy services and resolve customer concerns professionally.
  • Help develop promotions, events and initiatives that encourage repeat visits and strengthen the venue's community presence.

Who We're Looking For

We are looking for someone with a genuine passion for hospitality and a personality that makes people feel welcome.

You'll ideally have:

  • Previous experience in a Front of House Manager, Assistant Manager or similar supervisory role within hospitality.
  • Excellent customer service skills and the ability to build rapport with a wide range of people.
  • A friendly, approachable manner and a genuine interest in making customers feel valued.
  • Strong leadership skills, with the ability to motivate a team and lead from the front.
  • A proactive mindset, with the confidence to suggest new ideas and take ownership of improvements.
  • Experience in bar operations and a good understanding of drinks service; cocktail knowledge would be advantageous.
  • The ability to remain organised, calm and positive during busy services.
  • A reliable, hands-on approach and a willingness to get involved wherever needed.

Above all, we're looking for someone with personality, initiative and a customer-first mindset. Someone who understands that great hospitality is about more than serving food and drinks; it's about creating an experience that makes people want to come back.

Pay: £42,000.00-£45,000.00 per year
