General Manager – The Good Measure, Bristol

The Good Measure, Good Chemistry Brewing’s first pub in Bristol, is on the lookout for a new General Manager!
If you’ve got a knack for leading a small team, and love the idea of being the go-to person in a community-focused pub, this could be the place for you. We’re looking for someone who loves working behind the bar, who recognises the importance of setting the mood and being a friendly face, and understands the challenge of getting the details right to improve everyone’s visit.
The Good Measure, on Chandos Road in Redland, has grown from our brewery Good Chemistry Brewing, so much of the beer served there is our own. However, a key part of the pub is its ever-changing line-up of beers from further afield. You will be the one to choose these beers, using your knowledge of the independent brewing scene, to ensure that our regulars have a great range of interesting and exciting beers to pick from.
As you will know, maintaining a great range of beers adds complexity to the back office jobs, so you will need to be well organised. Your work hours away from the bar will involve stock control, cellar management, placing orders, setting prices, managing the staff rota, marketing – all the things that make a pub a successful and sustainable business.
Events have always been a highlight at The Good Measure, so we’ll be looking to you to set up a calendar of events. These might be one-off tap takeovers, or regular fixtures like our weekly quiz. We will work with you to help set up events to draw people to the pub, but we’ll be relying on your organisational skills to ensure that they become a reality!
Communication is a key part of managing a pub, and we are looking for someone who can use social media to connect with our customers. A pub is a community, and we want to keep in touch with our community so they know all about the events you put on, and don’t miss out on the great beers you’re serving. You don’t need to be an expert, and we’re here to support you, but this is an important part of promoting the business.
So, why not come and have a drink at The Good Measure – take a seat in the window and, if it feels like your kind of place, send us your CV plus your thoughts on what you could bring to our award-winning little pub.
This is a full-time role at 40 hours per week, with salary starting at £27,000.
We’d like you to start as soon as possible, so if this sounds like you drop us a line to jobs@goodchemistrybrewing.com with the subject line ‘The Good Measure’.
