About the Bars at Electric Summer

Electric Summer is Battersea Power Station's headline summer takeover of Power Station Park and the Coaling Jetty, a riverside funfair featuring fairground rides, a big wheel, dodgems, a full-size roller rink, and pétanque courts. The drinks offer spans the Boardwalk Bar and rooftop terrace, plus the relaxed waterside bar on the Coaling Jetty, serving craft beer, wine, cocktails and soft drinks to high volumes of guests daily, including bank holidays, in a fast-paced, weather-exposed, festival-style environment.

Role Purpose

The Assistant General Manager (Bars) has full operational ownership of every bar outlet at Electric Summer. This is a hands-on, floor-based role: you'll run service, manage cellars and stock, lead the bar team, and make sure each outlet consistently delivers on drink quality, speed of service, compliance and commercial performance.

Key Responsibilities

Bar Operations

● Take full day-to-day ownership of the Boardwalk Bar, rooftop terrace bar, and Coaling Jetty waterside bar

● Run pre-service briefings and deploy bar staff dynamically across outlets based on footfall, weather and peak trading periods

● Own opening and closing procedures for every bar: float checks, line cleaning, cellar lock-up, and equipment shutdown

● Manage cellar operations — cask/keg changes, line cleaning schedules, temperature control and stock rotation (FIFO)

● Monitor speed of service and drink consistency across all outlets, stepping onto the bar personally during peak periods

● Maintain and troubleshoot bar equipment (pumps, coolers, glasswashers, POS terminals), escalating maintenance issues promptly

Team Leadership

● Train and manage a seasonal team of bartenders and bar backs

● Deliver induction and ongoing training on drinks knowledge, pour standards, upselling, allergens and Challenge 25

● Manage bar staff welfare in an outdoor environment, including hydration, sun/weather protocols and welfare breaks

● Run shift debriefs, performance management and disciplinaries for the bar team as required

● Build and manage bar rotas in line with forecasted trade and labour budgets

Compliance & Safety

● Hold Responsible Person duties for the bars, ensuring full compliance with the premises licence and Challenge 25 age verification

● Maintain allergen compliance for all drinks and any bar snacks served

● Ensure cellar safety, COSHH and manual handling protocols are followed at every outlet

● Log and report any bar-related incidents, near-misses or licensing concerns

Commercial Performance

● Deliver against GP targets, wastage control and stock-loss KPIs for every bar

● Own weekly bar stocktakes, supplier ordering and invoice reconciliation

● Identify upselling and promotional opportunities (e.g. sponsor-led drinks activations, themed cocktails, happy hours)

● Feed bar sales and stock data into weekly trading reports and forecasting

Guest Experience

● Champion a warm, high-energy guest experience across every bar, in line with the Electric Summer brand

● Handle guest feedback and complaints at the point of service and resolve issues quickly

● Ensure bar areas are well-presented, well-stocked and easy for guests to navigate, including queue management at peak times

Person Specification

Essential

● Minimum 2–3 years' experience in a bar management or assistant bar management role, ideally within high-volume, seasonal, festival, or outdoor venues

● Strong drinks knowledge across draught, cocktails, wine and soft drinks, with a genuine interest in quality and service standards

● Hands-on cellar management experience: cask/keg changes, line cleaning and stock rotation

● Strong working knowledge of licensing law and Challenge 25

● Personal Licence holder (or willing to obtain before start date)

● Level 2 Food Hygiene certificate (or above)

● Proven ability to lead and motivate a bar team under pressure

● Confident, calm operator who leads from behind the bar during service

● Strong numeracy and stock/cash management experience

● Flexible availability across weekends, evenings and bank holidays for the duration of the season (late July–August)

Desirable

● Experience opening or running bars at a seasonal/pop-up or festival site

● Cocktail-making experience or WSET/beer & cellar qualifications

● Experience with EPOS and stock management software

● First Aid at Work certificate

What's on Offer

● Competitive seasonal salary, commensurate with experience

● Staff meals and drinks allowance on shift

● The chance to run the bars at one of London's most talked-about summer destinations, at an iconic riverside landmark

● Potential for future seasonal or permanent bar management opportunities within Battersea Power Station's wider hospitality portfolio

Pay: £16.00-£18.00 per hour

Benefits:

  • Discounted or free food
  • Employee discount
