WE ARE HIRING - GENERAL MANAGER

True Craft Tottenham & Walthamstow, London

Salary: £40,000–£45,000 per annum
Plus: TRONC tips
Hours: 45 hours per week (primarily shift-based, with dedicated management and administrative time)

Holiday: 31 days per year (includes 3 day Christmas break) 

The Role:

We're looking for an exceptional General Manager to help lead the next chapter of the business.

You'll work closely with the owners, have genuine autonomy and play a key part in shaping the culture, standards and future of the business.

You'll spend most of your time working alongside the team on the floor, leading busy services, coaching staff and ensuring both venues operate to the highest standards.

Your primary base will be our Tottenham venue, although you'll oversee both Tottenham and Walthamstow, leading our front of house team and working closely alongside our Kitchen Manager to create one cohesive team across both the bar and kitchen.

We're not simply looking for someone to manage shifts. We're looking for someone who builds great teams.

Who We're Looking For

The right person will be:

  • A natural leader who enjoys developing people.

  • Calm under pressure.

  • Highly organised.

  • Conscientious and reliable.

  • An excellent communicator.

  • Confident holding people accountable.

  • Passionate about creating positive team cultures.

  • Hands-on and happy leading from the front.

  • Proud of maintaining exceptionally high standards.

What matters most is your attitude, leadership style and ability to bring the best out of people.

Essential Experience:

  • Previous hospitality management experience.

  • Experience managing teams.

  • Experience recruiting, training and developing staff.

  • Strong organisational skills.

  • Availability to work evenings, weekends and key trading periods.

Why Join True Craft?

  • Join a respected independent hospitality business.

  • Work directly with the owners.

  • Genuine autonomy and influence over how the business operates.

  • Competitive salary plus additional monthly TRONC tips.

  • Paid holiday with additional 3 days at Christmas.

  • Opportunity to make a real impact rather than simply follow a corporate playbook.

If you're passionate about hospitality, enjoy developing people and take pride in creating great teams and exceptional customer experiences, we'd love to hear from you.
