If you are a hands-on manager who thrives in the center of the action, the Horse & Jockey Hotel offers a dynamic, high-tempo stage for your leadership skills. From busy weekend family dining and major live sports broadcasts to high-touch service in our gaming lounge, no two days here are ever the same.
You won't be working in isolation, our venue is powered by a collaborative group of Assistant Managers working together on the floor. You’ll partner directly with fellow venue leaders to run peak shifts, mentor our energetic hospitality crew, coordinate cross-departmental operations, and deliver an outstanding experience for our regular guests and local community.
