Chief Executive Officer – Hospitality £180,000 - £240,000 plus bonus
Location: London (with sites in Manchester, Birmingham and Scotland)
MUST be based in London to apply.
This is a rare and exciting leadership role within a dynamic, award‑winning hospitality, restaurant and bar group. The business is entering a significant growth phase, with plans to refresh its sites, drive revenue, and expand operations. The investment company is stepping away, and they are looking to hire someone to run the entire operation. This role will oversee multiple sites, ensuring smooth day‑to‑day management and strategic growth.
We are seeking an accomplished Chief Executive Officer to shape the future of the business. You will work closely with the founders, with a clear pathway to take on long‑term leadership responsibilities:
* Oversee day‑to‑day operations across the portfolio, ensuring each site maintains its unique energy, high standards, and guest‑focused culture.
* Strategically drive growth, particularly in food & beverage, preparing the business for expansion and scaling successfully.
* Deliver operational improvements, refine processes, and ensure teams are structured and empowered to deliver revenue and exceptional customer experiences.
* Lead refurbishment plans across sites, including restaurants and rooms, and maximise revenue from F&B operations.
Who We’re Looking For:
* Proven senior operator (Chief Executive Officer or similar) with multi‐site experience in the hospitality space.
* Strong track record of driving revenue growth, particularly in food & beverage‑led operations.
* Hands‑on, people‑focused, and able to inspire large teams across multiple locations.
* Commercially astute with the ability to balance growth with exceptional customer experience.
* Strategic thinker with long‑term vision, excited by the opportunity to help lead a business through its next growth phase.
* Independent background desirable, with experience delivering clear market communication and sales growth.
The Business:
* The group has multiple sites, in London and key cities outside London – London experience is essential.
* Key priorities include launching and driving sales, refurbishing sites, and growth of the business – strong leadership role.
* Building long‑term revenue growth. Previous leadership changes have set the business up for a fresh strategic direction, creating an opportunity for a high‑impact CEO to shape and drive its future.
This is a standout opportunity for a highly capable operator who wants to make a genuine impact in a growing, ambitious hospitality business.
