General Manager - The Deaf Institute - Manchester

General Manager - The Deaf Institute - Manchester

Up to £30,000 + Bonus

We are looking for a truly world class General Manager to lead all aspects of the management at the prestigious Albert Hall in Manchester.

The Deaf Institute is an independent fun-loving bar & venue, spread across 3 floors, with 3 bars, a kitchen & a roof terrace. With a full calendar of live music and club events throughout the year the past twelve months has seen The Deaf Institute feature The XX, Idles, Blossoms, Todd Terje and Peter Hook & The Light.

Housed in a historic Manchester building originally built in 1878 as The Deaf Institute, the building was derelict when we first got our hands on it over a decade ago, and we have refurbished it back to something we hope approaches its original glory.

The perfect candidate

• Proven event management experience preferably across live, club, corporate hire and weddings
• A natural communicator who is able to build and maintain great relationships with key stakeholders and partners (security, promotors, neighbours and licensing)
• An innovator who can identify opportunities for developing events and in house shows 
• Experience in managing events with security and licensing challenges.
• Has experience of building an engaged team who are excited to deliver a world class guest experience
• Experienced in a fresh food environment 
• Experienced at all aspects of financial control – event forecasting, business planning, margin control and budgeting.
• A proper grafter - the prospect of managing truly world class events should make the hair on your neck stand up!
