Bar Manager (m/f/d)

The Hoxton, Charlottenburg (Berlin) - Bar Manager (m/f/d)

2023 sees The Hoxton take on Europe! We’re popping up in some of our favourite cities and we’ve opened our first hotel in Germany in the city of culture and creativity, Berlin. We are now looking for an experienced and creative Bar Manager to play a crucial part in successfully bringing a new concept to the market.

Our first Hoxton in Germany is home to 234 bedrooms of varying sizes, a ground floor restaurant and bar, coffee bar and streetside terrace and The Apartment – our unique meetings and events concept. Our restaurant is the meeting of a North Indian communal eatery and a classic European cuisine. It brings together the characteristics of these two traditional restaurants - the tandoor ovens, Indian spices, and marinades, select prime cuts of meat, and buzzing atmosphere.

Reporting to our Director of F&B, you will be responsible for managing the daily Bar/Cafe operations, maintaining sanitation standards, and train the bartender and barista team during service. Strive to continually improve guest and employee satisfaction and maximize financial performance in areas of responsibility.

More about us...

The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and submerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces.

What you’ll do…

• Run a fun, slick and fast-paced bar and café operation, day and night.
• Be creative, share ideas, develop and implement our bar strategy.
• Innovate The Hoxton Wintergarden Bar concept, with fireplace, live music, DJ sessions, and be ahead of the rest with our evolving mindset.
• Know your product and systems inside out.
• Drive service standards through your team – strive for the best for the guest.
• Lead and develop your team, encouraging The Hoxton family vibe always.

What we’re looking for…

• At least 3 years’ experience in a busy bar operations role, with a flair for cocktail making, a keen eye for detail and good understanding of managing a P&L.
• Creative flair, an innovative approach that, paired with fantastic ‘market’ knowledge, means you like doing things differently and trying (almost) anything once.
• Genuine passion for what you to, you can inspire those around and are a natural at leading and managing your team.
• You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
• You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get the job done.
• You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.
• If we got stuck in a lift together we’d have a good time and share a few laughs.
• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other and has fun along the way.

What's in it for you...

• The opportunity to bring an exciting new hospitality concept to Berlin (and Germany) and join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that’s committed to not just building new hotels but building a global brand.
• 24 holidays (plus bank holidays) and extra time off to volunteer with one of our partner charities.
• A competitive package, plenty of opportunity for development and rewards for going the extra mile and living our values.
• Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that’s committed to not just building new hotels but building a global brand.
• The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding.
• Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences and building a portfolio of brands.
• Enjoy a free night at The Hoxton and a meal for two when you first start with us.
• Goes without saying, but we’ll feed you when on shift.
• Great discounts across the entire Ennismore family.
• Lots of opportunity to progress and switch it up as part of a global family of brands.
• Regular team get togethers, from our team drinks to our (pretty special!) bi-annual parties – we know how to have a good time!
• An annual diversity and inclusion calendar of events creating opportunities for you to learn, celebrate and make a positive impact.
