Job Description
McBride Sport is proud to be supporting a leading contract catering and hospitality business in the search for an accomplished General Manager to oversee a high-profile university campus operation in Southwest London. This is a flagship site within the education portfolio, combining 11 vibrant retail outlets, extensive hospitality and conferencing facilities, and a year-round programme of student and corporate events. The successful candidate will lead a management team of six, driving service excellence, commercial performance, and a culture of innovation across the campus.
