We are now recruiting for a people focused Manager to run the Polecat in Prestwood, Great Missenden
A rare opportunity has arisen for a General Manager for our lovely New Heritage Collection pub bordering the Chilterns and nestled in the village of Prestwood. This stunning Grade II listed building originally came to life as a 17th century hunting lodge.
The Polecat is the very best example of a contemporary country pub. The traditional bar and cosy fireplaces join a glass-fronted restaurant accommodating an open theatre-style kitchen and wood-fired pizza oven.
The menu begins in the morning with breakfast and runs straight through the day and evening, featuring an imaginative and delicious range of gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan dishes together with daily specials. With an emphasis on Mediterranean-inspired, freshly cooked food, our chefs can be seen plying their craft over charcoal ovens and grills in an open kitchen.
This is a great food business with a strong reputation locally and potential to grow. The right candidate will have a proven track record of growing sales in a volume food led business, a strong people skillset and a desire to build and lead an engaged team as well as exceptional guest service. The ideal candidate will be a creative, energetic problem solver who wants to make this pub stand out by putting their own stamp on the business, developing a strong team, engaging guests through events and social media.
The venue is food led with a split of 75/25 split and caters for up to 1400 covers weekly, with sales of £45-50K, depending on the season. This is a flagship business with an experienced and enthusiastic team of over 50 so candidates must have experience running a large team.
