Full Time – Based on 45 hours per week

The Ring O’Bells is a pub full of character and charm, situated in the heart of the old village of West Kirby, a stone’s throw from its marine lake and bustling village centre. The pub has quickly established itself as a popular place to visit on the Wirral following its extensive refurb. It has a strong reputation for offering a wide selection of top notch beers, quality wines and serving fresh interesting food cooked by our team of talented chefs. We’ve just launched 'The Pavillion' - an exciting new outdoor venture, so we’re now on the lookout for another deputy manager to join and further strengthen our team.

The Ring O’ Bells is part of the Stange & Co pub group. Stange & Co are an expanding family company that puts its teams first. We realise it’s our teams and their hard work that make our pubs as successful as they are, and we recognise and encourage enthusiasm and passion within our teams. If you thrive off a busy working environment and are both a strong leader as well as a team player, are willing to muck in and get your hands dirty when needed, you’ll fit right in.

What’s in it for you:

• An extremely competitive salary which will regularly be reviewed to reflect and recognise your progression, skills and experience
• Generous Tips
• Full Company sick pay after 2 years’ service
• Enhanced company parental pay
• Guaranteed Christmas day off every year to enjoy with your family and friends

What we’re looking for:

A positive deputy general manager with an outgoing personality, bags of enthusiasm and a genuine love of people and the industry, so not much!

Previous experience of working in a similar environment is essential as we know you’ll have the attitude and work ethos we’re looking for. Some experience of managing people is also essential, as it’ll be a big team and they’ll be looking to you for direction and guidance.

Who we are:
