General Manager – McLarens on the Corner

Salary: £45,000 to £50,000 per year DOE plus TRONC and Quarterly Bonus

McLarens on the Corner is entering an exciting new phase.

With sales up over +30% year-to-date, the opportunity here is huge. We’re looking for a General Manager who can take that momentum and turn it into something long-term, sustainable, and genuinely special — a venue that sits at the heart of its community and delivers consistently brilliant experiences.

This isn’t about maintaining standards. It’s about raising them.

We need someone who can build and lead a strong, stable team, create energy in the building, and bring fresh ideas that keep McLarens moving forward.

The Role

Leadership & Team Building

You’ll recruit, develop and lead a team that people want to be part of.

Creating a positive, high-performance culture where standards are clear, energy is high, and people are proud of what they do.

Driving the Next Phase

You’ll take a site with real momentum and shape what comes next.

Bringing ideas, owning initiatives, and making sure McLarens continues to grow — not just in sales, but in reputation and consistency.

Operational Excellence

You’ll run a tight operation across all departments — bar, kitchen and floor — ensuring quality, pace, and standards are delivered day in, day out.

Community & Guest Experience

McLarens has always been a neighbourhood venue at its core.

You’ll build on that — creating a space people return to time and again, where service is warm, personal and memorable.

Financial Performance

You’ll understand the numbers and use them.

Driving revenue, controlling costs, and making smart decisions that maximise profitability without compromising the guest experience.

Standards, Compliance & Safety

You’ll ensure everything is done properly — safely, legally, and consistently — while never letting that get in the way of delivering a great experience.

What We’re Looking For

A proven leader who can build, motivate and retain great teams
Minimum 2 years’ experience as a General Manager at a site with weekly turnover of £30k or more
Someone with high standards who takes real pride in how a venue looks, feels and performs
A personality that is warm, visible and engaging — with both guests and team
A strong operator who understands the detail but can also think bigger picture
Someone with ideas, energy and drive — who wants to make a mark on a venue
Financially aware, commercially sharp, and comfortable owning performance

Why McLarens?

Because it matters.

This is a venue with real character, a strong local following, and massive potential. The foundations are there — now it needs the right person to take it to the next level.

Benefits

On top of pay, we offer:

25%–50% staff discount across all Signature Group venues
Employee Assistance Programme (24/7 support)
Additional annual leave with length of service
Ongoing development opportunities across the group

We believe in looking after our people and supporting a healthy work/life balance.

Applying

If you’re ready to take ownership of a venue with serious potential — and build something you can be proud of — we’d love to hear from you.
