Job Description

Publican (Venue Manager) | Mattara Hotel

We’re on the hunt for a REAL Publican, someone who lives and breathes hospitality, leads from the front, and brings locals together by creating pub experiences they love.

Standing tall on the corner of Charlestown Road, The Mattara Hotel is a premier destination located in the heart of Newcastle. A modern and exciting hotel that boasts multiple bar and dining areas, state of the art Sport Lounge and superior Function spaces.

Whether our guests are looking to enjoy a meal with family, relax with friends after a hard days work, or celebrate a special event, they can look no further than The Mattara Hotel.

Salary: From $95,000 + superannuation + bonus

A day in the life of a Publican:

- You know the locals by name, they reckon you’re one of their own, all while keeping a sharp eye on the P&L.;
- You run the place like it’s your own modern-day home, keeping things protected, smooth, and compliant.
- You're the pillar of the local community and the driving force behind a high-performing team.
- You put out fires before anyone even notices there was smoke.
- You bring the vibe, the service, and the smiles – every shift, every day.

Inherent requirements:

- This is a hands-on role that involves manual handling and lifting as part of regular duties (e.g. moving stock, kegs, and deliveries).



Applicants must have the ability to perform physical tasks safely and efficiently.

About you:

You already know if this is for you. You’ve got the experience, the presence, and the pride it takes to own a pub like it’s been yours forever. You're not just running a venue - you're living the Publican life.

- Hold current industry RSA, RCG and Licensee qualifications as per NSW state requirements

The benefits are good too!
