Hello, we’re Fare Traders and we repurpose empty restaurant spaces to help ambitious entrepreneurs with amazing food concepts get in front of hungry customers. And, we are all about sustainable food served up in a casual ‘pop-up’ setting. 

This is an excellent opportunity to join our team at The Castle Inn in Hornby, working with like-minded professionals, serving locally-sourced food and drink, where you develop your skills and career in the process.

We are looking for someone to take on and run all aspects of the Castle Inn – in the beautiful village of Hornby, Lancashire. 

Who we’re looking for:

• An enthusiastic and professional individual with a real passion for food, and having fun through hospitality and customer service.
• A proven track record in the hospitality industry in food, events, hotels or restaurant management.
• Someone who’s a proper team player, and who has the ability to manage and support wherever and whenever it’s needed.
• A track record working to and managing budgets, and experience in collecting, interpreting, and reporting results to Managers/Directors.
• Experience in health & safety, first aid or food safety. Or a qualification in hospitality management or business.
  
  

What we’re offering:

• An industry-competitive salary (based on experience) and a sales and performance-related bonus package.
• On-premises accommodation (if required)
• Full induction and training 
• An invitation to join the Company pension scheme 
• 28 days annual leave inclusive of bank holidays 
• Access to training and development qualifications
• An opportunity to grow with Fare Traders within our network of venues  
• To be part of something that is central to the village and surrounding community 
  
  

How we approach business day to day:

1. Making a difference is more important than making numbers – focus on social and environmental impacts first, not vanity metrics.
2. Always have each other’s back, but if required, call each other out – provide space and freedom to make mistakes (and be forgiven for them).
3. Find the balance between optimism and realism – put the hard work into the opportunities where everyone wins.
4. Make it fun – celebrate the ups, learn from the downs, and don’t take them to heart.
   
   

Fare Traders is an inclusive employer with no barriers to entry or limits to ambition. We welcome any application regardless of background, ethnicity, disability or self-identification. What we want to see is the true you.

If you like the cut of our jib, we’d love to hear from you.
