Venue Manager – Pinky Burger Foundry Hospitality Group is looking for a friendly, energetic and highly organised Venue Manager to take care of the day-to-day running of Pinky Burger, our new burger, cocktail and karaoke concept in Balham. This isn’t a traditional restaurant management role. Pinky has a deliberately simple food operation, QR-code ordering, a dedicated bar person and support from our Operations Manager.

You should genuinely enjoy meeting people, be confident talking to guests and have the sort of presence that makes people feel welcome from the moment they walk through the door. You don’t need years of restaurant management experience. You might currently be a supervisor, duty manager, assistant manager or an experienced front-of-house person ready to take the next step. Hospitality experience is important, but attitude, reliability, organisation and personality matter just as much. You’ll have the support of Foundry Hospitality’s Operations Manager, while having plenty of autonomy to make Pinky a great neighbourhood venue. The right person will be: • Warm, outgoing and naturally welcoming, • Reliable and highly organised, • Comfortable taking responsibility for a venue, • Experienced in hospitality, bars, restaurants or similar, • Happy working in a lively, informal environment, • Hands-on — willing to jump in wherever needed, • Confident managing busy evenings and late-night trade, • Someone who takes pride in keeping a venue spotless, organised and ready for service This is a great opportunity for someone looking for their first venue management position without stepping into the complexity of running a large traditional restaurant.
