An exciting opportunity to lead the daytime operations at Molli, where bold flavours, sustainability, and community come together. The Mulberry Group is committed to creating thoughtful, impactful hospitality experiences. Through boutique food and beverage creation and local sourcing from Common Ground Project, our own regenerative farm, we are reimagining the way people connect with food.

We are seeking an exceptional leader to oversee this dynamic hospitality space, ensuring it maintains the highest standards from morning service to late-night dining and drinks.

About the Role

This is a career-defining opportunity for a hospitality professional who thrives in high-energy, guest-focused environments. As Venue Manager of Molli, you will oversee the guest experience, operational flow, and financial performance of the venue, ensuring that every daytime service runs smoothly.

You will play a key role in shaping the culture, service, and success of this exciting venue. Whether you're managing the floor on a busy Saturday night, leading pre-service briefings, hosting VIP guests, or strategising growth opportunities, you will be the driving force behind the venue's identity and reputation.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Overseeing the daytime operation, ensuring smooth transitions between day and evening services.
  • Leading, inspiring, and developing a high-performing team, fostering a culture of collaboration, creativity, and excellence
  • Driving exceptional service standards, ensuring every guest has a memorable experience
  • Managing financial performance, including budgeting, cost control, and revenue growth strategies
  • Working closely with the kitchen and bar teams to deliver an innovative seasonal food and beverage menu
  • Developing and executing functions and private events, creating bespoke hospitality experiences for guests.
  • Upholding sustainability and ethical sourcing principles, ensuring all operations align with our values
  • Engaging with the local community, suppliers, and the broader hospitality industry, positioning the venue as a must-visit destination

What We're Looking For

  • A proven leader with experience managing high-performing teams
  • A deep passion for food, hospitality, and sustainability, with a strong guest-first mindset
  • Strong leadership skills, with the ability to motivate, mentor, and develop a team
  • A strategic mindset, with experience in budgets, cost control, and driving profitability
  • A natural problem-solver who thrives under pressure and in fast-paced environments
  • A strong background in cafe management or hospitality leadership roles
  • A commitment to creating an inclusive, welcoming, and community-driven atmosphere

Why Join The Mulberry Group?

  • Innovative day-to-night concept – Lead a venue that evolves from daytime café culture to an immersive evening dining and drinks experience
  • Sustainability at its core – Work with a business that prioritises ethical sourcing, fermentation, and responsible hospitality
  • Strong team culture – Be part of a collaborative, passionate team that values creativity and continuous learning
  • Career growth and development – We invest in our people, offering opportunities for professional development and career progression

This is your chance to be part of something truly special—a venue that not only serves great food and drinks but also drives meaningful change in the way people experience hospitality. If you're an inspired, hands-on leader ready to make an impact, we'd love to hear from you.
