Join Fuller's: Where the true you thrives anddiversity is embraced. At Fuller's we don't just offer jobs, we invite you tocelebrate your authentic self. Our four core values - doing things the rightway, being part of the family, celebrating individuality and always asking what'snext? - define the essence of who we are.

We have an exciting opportunity for a General Manager to build on the success of the beautiful Crystal Palace and maintain the excellent local reputation that Fuller's has established.

This iconic premium pub is located near the Roman Baths and Bath Abbey, The Crystal Palace is one of the city's true gems, and we want to continue to be famous for being exactly that. The perfect place to celebrate with family after a graduation, for a refreshing pint after an event at the Abbey, a must stop destination when visiting the Christmas markets, or just catching up with friends because it's your local in the city.

The Crystal Palace attracts a varied customer base and is food led. The menu consists of a great selection of pub hero dishes as part of the Classic Menu Concept and has always relied heavily on excellent Signature dishes to create a more premium dining experience. They also serve the usual range of perfectly conditioned beers, ales, wines, and spirits. Rugby and the Christmas Markets are the core high volume events in Bath, but it is also a bustling and beautiful tourist location all year round.

The next General Manager of The Crystal Palace will need to have experience in delivering both high volume drink and food occasions. The ability to train and motivate the team to offer great service especially during peak trading will be essential. Building on, and maintaining the good online reputation, as well as some strong local marketing will help the business to continue to grow. Impeccable retail standards will be essential to the site's future success.

This is a live-in position and comes with a flat above the pub which overlooks Abbey Green, which has become famous for the part it played in the Netflix lockdown sensation Bridgerton! So, if you love city life, but also want to be close to beautiful countryside and culture this could be the right move for you. The Crystal Palace is a perfect appointment for an experienced General Manager looking for their next challenge.
