This is an chance to relocate to regional NSW and take full operational leadership of an established, profitable pub with significant room to grow.
The business is there. The opportunity is to make it better.

The owners are looking for a commercially sharp, hands-on General Manager who can build a stronger team, elevate the food and beverage offer and turn the venue’s potential into measurable results.

This is not a caretaker appointment.

You will have the opportunity to recruit key people, influence the direction of the business and establish the standards that support its next phase of investment.

With relocation assistance and complimentary short-term accommodation available, there is practical support behind the move—and experienced operational backing once you arrive.

The Venue

Backed by a privately owned hospitality group, this established regional pub combines a loyal local following with multiple revenue streams and clear opportunities for improvement.

Expect:

- An established, profitable business with scope to strengthen performance
- Food, beverage and gaming operations requiring visible, commercially disciplined leadership
- Refurbished guest accommodation with opportunities to grow business beyond weekend trade
- The opportunity to recruit key management and kitchen talent
- Plans for further investment, with the right leader and team central to moving them forward
- Engaged ownership that welcomes ideas, constructive challenge and a clear business plan

The ambition is to build a venue that attracts a broader customer base, gives people more reasons to return and performs consistently across every department.

The owners want someone who can see the opportunity—and knows how to deliver it.

The Role

You will take full operational and commercial leadership across the venue, including:





- Ownership of the business plan, budget and commercial performance, with accountability for revenue, labour and operating costs
- Recruitment, coaching and development of your management team, creating clear standards and stronger day-to-day accountability
- Development of the food and beverage offer alongside the kitchen team, improving quality, service and repeat visitation
- Gaming operations, compliance and responsible venue management
- Accommodation performance, including building local business relationships and identifying opportunities to increase bookings
- Community engagement through local businesses, sporting clubs and organisations
- Guest experience, service standards and consistent operating routines across the business

This is a hands-on, floor-led leadership role, particularly while you establish yourself.

You will get to know the team, understand the trading patterns and learn where the venue fits within its community before setting the priorities with group operations.

From there, the expectation is clear: build the team, own the plan and deliver the results.

The longer-term goal is to develop capable managers around you, creating room to focus increasingly on business growth rather than personally covering every operational gap.

About You

- A proven pub General Manager, or an accomplished 2IC ready to take full venue responsibility
- A strong gaming background and a practical understanding of running a multifaceted pub operation
- Commercially disciplined, with evidence of managing wages,



improving revenue and lifting performance
- Confident recruiting, mentoring and holding people accountable
- Highly visible and guest-focused, with the ability to earn the trust of both staff and regulars
- Comfortable bringing ideas to ownership and taking responsibility for their execution
- Genuinely ready to relocate and become part of the local community

Strong pub operations and gaming experience are essential.

You do not need to arrive with every answer. You do need the judgement to understand the business, the confidence to make decisions and the leadership to bring people with you.

An experienced GM will bring a proven commercial track record. A step-up candidate will need to demonstrate the operational depth, maturity and ambition to take on broader responsibility.

What’s On Offer

- Up to $150K, with the final salary reflecting experience and demonstrated performance
- Relocation assistance, tailored to the successful candidate’s circumstances
- Complimentary short-term accommodation, with arrangements agreed to help you get established
- A performance-based bonus opportunity, linked to agreed targets
- Genuine operational autonomy within an agreed business plan
- Experienced operational mentoring and support, alongside a wider network of managers across the group
- Scope for career progression, through growth within the venue or larger opportunities across the business as results and vacancies align

This is a regional move with a clear professional purpose: take ownership of a business with room to improve, build a team that performs and put meaningful commercial results behind your next career step.

The owners are looking for someone who can grow with the opportunity—not simply fill the position.

For a hospitality leader ready to relocate, take greater ownership and make a measurable difference, we welcome a confidential conversation.
