Restaurant General Manager

The hotel is due to embark on a multi-million pound transformation therefore experience of taking a restaurant through a repositioning project would be preferred. At launch, our restaurant will be the most exciting place to eat and drink in Bath and beyond with beautifully designed dining area with open plan kitchen where the team will prepare local, seasonal ingredients over open fire. Complementing the restaurant will be our luxurious bar, intimate snug and terrace(s).

As one of the first Georgian buildings to be built in Bath, The Francis Hotel was once home to 18th century architect John Wood the Elder who was the inspiration behind the first Georgian stone buildings of Queen Square, the Royal Crescent and The Circus. The hotel has been a huge part of Bath's history ever since. Working with award-winning interior designers 3DReid, the design concept planned for the hotel and all 98 bedrooms will take inspiration from the Georgian era whilst appreciating all the modern amenities and touches that today's traveller expects.

You will have the opportunity to really make your mark in the local restaurant scene and will drive exceptional guest experiences with your team. A background in (very) busy, fast moving, city centre restaurants is highly desirable.

In addition to an excellent salary package (plus up to 20% bonus) and the traditional hotel benefits listed below, this role comes with a "gold standard" healthcare package, and enhanced pension scheme.
