Be Part of Bristol's First Luxury Five Star Lifestyle Hotel

Hotel Gotham first turned heads in Manchester, earning the title of "Europe's sexiest hotel". Following a show-stopping opening in Newcastle, the curtain now rises on the next act of the Gotham story - and this time, Bristol takes centre stage.

The iconic Grade II listed Guildhall is being thoughtfully transformed into Bristol's first luxury five star lifestyle hotel. Rich in history and architectural grandeur, expect breathtaking Gothic windows, magnificent stained glass, and original period features around every corner. It's a setting worthy of Gotham.

Hotel Gotham is more than just a hotel - it's a way of life. A vibe. A 5-star, theatrical, vibrant, stylish, dramatic experience - for guests and colleagues.

As our Rooftop Bar Manager, you'll play a pivotal role as a member of the senior management team during the pre-opening phase of our breathtaking hotel. This is a fantastic opportunity to build and lead one of the city's most anticipated rooftop destinations, delivering exceptional cocktail experiences and five-star service in a truly iconic setting.

Working closely with the pre-opening leadership team, you'll recruit and develop a high-performing rooftop bar team, establishing service standards, training, and Standard Operating Procedures that define the Gotham five-star experience.

We are looking for someone who genuinely lives and breathes cocktails, with natural charisma, an eye for detail, and passion for creating unforgettable guest experiences. Someone who will bring the Gotham spirit to life while creating a vibrant rooftop destination renowned for its atmosphere, impeccable service, and attention to detail from day one. You'll be as comfortable discussing a classic Negroni as you are leading a busy service, and you'll bring the energy, style, and personality needed to make our rooftop bar one of Bristol's most talked-about destinations. After all, second best has never really been our style.

Your Key Responsibilities Will Include

• The assurance of an exceptional level of product, service, and menu knowledge for the hotel venue through menu development, staff training, and team culture


• Possess a comprehensive knowledge of wine, cocktails, and beverage menus


• To ensure the team is consistently achieving high standards of cleanliness and brand service are achieved


• Ensure the completion and efficiency of all standard checklists and that they are utilized


• To set and maintain all standard policies and procedures for the rooftop team


• To be fully competent with the licensing laws and regulations for alcohol sale, and promote this within the rooftop team


• To ensure all documentation, i.e., checks/bills, are completed as necessary and carried out as per the Hotel and Company Standards


• To proactively review and identify ways to improve customer satisfaction, procedures, and policies within the venue


• Able and coherent in who to direct guests to if unable to answer queries


• To comprehend all procedures and regulations regarding food safety and allergens, always ensuring strict compliance with the standards and expectations


• Fully consistent with the presentation, delivery, and service of all drinks within the venue


• Engage with guests to promote, upsell, but most importantly enhance their journey and experience

We're looking for passionate hospitality professionals ready to take centre stage and help bring the Gotham experience to life from day one. If you have exceptional communication skills, outstanding attention to detail, and thrive as part of a high-performing team, we'd love to hear from you.
