General Manager

We are recruiting for The Plough, a McMullen pub since 1917 and rebuilt in 1980.

A hop, skip, and jump from the Royal Gunpowder Mills, surrounded by gardens and with our own fort for the little munchkins, the Plough’s a lovely spot for relaxing with family and friends. Sundays, in particular, are special here – come and enjoy our sumptuous carvery, along with locally brewed real ales, fine wines and plenty of smiles.

Location and Style

The Plough has a real community feel about it with regular special nights. The pub sits within the Macs Classic concept, with the addition of a lovely carvery and we are looking for a manager to maintain the excellent standards already in place and to drive sales. The Plough has a solid foundation with a fantastic management team and gives the right candidate the opportunity to showcase their skills to drive the business forward.
