Great pubs don't run themselves. That's where you come in.

Picture this: you finish a cracking Friday night shift, the team's buzzing, the locals are already talking about next weekend, and the beach is just down the road. Welcome to life at The Ettalong Hotel.

We're a lively, community-loving pub in the heart of Ettalong, and we're on the hunt for an Assistant Venue Manager who brings the energy, leads from the front and gets a genuine kick out of making people's day.

You'll team up with our General Manager to run the show day to day, back a crew who love what they do, and make sure every guest leaves happy (and already planning their next visit).

What you will be doing;

- Overseeing all venue operations while on shift, including the front bar, bistro, sports bar, gaming and our incredible outdoor area.
- Leading, coaching and developing a young and very motivated team who genuinely enjoy working together.
- Keeping a sharp eye on costs, especially labour, without cutting corners on service
- Setting the vibe: live entertainment, lighting, music and atmosphere – have an eye for the little things!
- Ensuring compliance across liquor, gaming, TAB and KENO requirements
- Bringing fresh ideas to our weekly lineup, finding better ways to do things!

What you’ll bring;

- Experience as an Assistant Manager,



or a strong supervisor who is now ready for the next step

Honestly? Attitude counts as much as your CV. If you're switched on, committed and up for a challenge, we want to hear from you. So, why join The Ettalong?

We are a lively, multi-faceted local with a front bar, bistro, family-friendly outdoor areas, sports bar, gaming and a calendar packed with live music, entertainment, and big sporting events.

Our present and supportive management team welcome new ideas and initiative. We love to see our team members thrive in their areas of passion and think outside the box
