A Programme that delivers success
The Placement scheme is designed for students who have a real passion and flair for the licensed retail industry and wish to join the hands–on management team and pursue a career in pub or restaurant management. The structured programme offers candidates a well-defined development plan to maximise their potential and reach their career ambition as their talent and determination allow.
Our Progress Graduate scheme allows graduates the opportunity to enter a hands-on management training scheme. We believe that by offering similar opportunities to placement students we can support the many Universities offering Licensed Retail Management, Hospitality and Business Management Courses.
Following successful assessment, candidates are then eligible to enter the company as a team leader in one of our pubs, bars or restaurants. A wide range of vacancies are available across the whole country, however the more flexible candidates are the more opportunities will be available to them.

- Training all new team members to the standard of a ‘competent’ bar person.
- Acting as a brand guardian for food and drink dispense
- Ensuring fast efficient service to all customers regarding food, drink, cash handling, till use and all aspects of customer relations
After completion of the required training you will assist the management team in the day to day running of the business.
