General Manager

Senior Leadership | Full-Time, Permanent | Reporting to Owner

ABOUT EJ KINGS

EJ Kings has been at the heart of Clifden for over 100 years. Dominating the corner of Main Street and Market Square, we are a landmark bar and restaurant in the capital of Connemara – a magnet for writers, artists, filmmakers, and visitors from around the world.

We serve food from midday through to 9pm, with a full restaurant service in the evenings. Live music seven nights a week. A warm welcome, great food, an excellent pint, and good cheer – that's what we're known for, and that's what we intend to build on.

EJ Kings is part of the Westbrown portfolio of hospitality properties. This is a venue with enormous potential.

THE OPPORTUNITY

This is not just a job. This is a lifestyle choice.

We are seeking a General Manager to relocate to Clifden and take full ownership of EJ Kings. Someone who wants to run a business as if it were their own – building its reputation, driving its success, and becoming part of the fabric of this extraordinary town.

Clifden is a seasonal town, and the peak season from Easter to September is intense – tourists, festivals, groups, and locals all converging on a small number of quality venues. The potential here is huge for the right operator. But success requires commitment: being present, being visible, and being willing to put in the work when it matters most.

In return, you'll have the autonomy to shape the business, a prime location in one of Ireland's most beautiful towns, and the backing of an established hospitality group. For someone wanting to build something meaningful – and live somewhere truly special – this is a rare opportunity.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

Operations & Leadership

Take full operational ownership of EJ Kings – bar, restaurant, and live music programme
Recruit, train, and lead a seasonal team to deliver consistently excellent service
Be present and visible – this is a hands-on role, not remote management
Manage rosters, stock, suppliers, and day-to-day operations
Ensure compliance with licensing, health & safety, food safety, and employment legislation

Commercial & Revenue

Drive revenue through food, beverage, group bookings, and events
Maximise the peak season – Easter to September is where the business is made
Control costs, manage GP, and deliver against targets
Identify opportunities to extend the season and build year-round trade

Reputation & Community

Build and maintain EJ Kings' reputation as a must-visit destination in Clifden
Develop relationships with local businesses, tour operators, and the wider Connemara community
Champion exceptional guest experiences – food, service, atmosphere, and live music
Manage online presence and respond to reviews across TripAdvisor, Google, and social media
Position EJ Kings at the heart of Clifden's social and cultural life

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Proven track record running a busy bar and restaurant – ideally as GM or Owner-Operator
Someone who wants to 'own' a business – with the mindset, commitment, and accountability that entails
Willing to relocate to Clifden – this role requires you to be part of the community, not commuting from elsewhere
Ready to commit for a tenured period – we're looking for someone to build something, not pass through
Hands-on operator who leads from the front
Commercially astute with strong P&L understanding
Excellent with people – guests, team, suppliers, and the local community
Calm under pressure during high-intensity peak season
Knowledge of the West of Ireland hospitality scene is an advantage, but passion and commitment matter more

WHAT WE OFFER

Competitive salary – reflective of the seniority and commitment required
Performance-based bonus structure
Autonomy to run the venue and shape its future
Direct reporting line to the Owner
Support from an established hospitality group with multiple properties
Accommodation support for relocation can be discussed
A rare opportunity to live and work in one of Ireland's most beautiful locations

IS THIS YOU?

This role is for someone at a turning point – perhaps you've managed venues for others and now want to run one as your own. Perhaps you're looking to leave the city and build a life somewhere different. Perhaps you've always dreamed of being the person behind a great local pub in the West of Ireland.

If that's you, we want to hear from you. If you're looking for a short-term stepping stone, this isn't it. Serious applicants only.

Pay: €50,000.00-€75,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Company pension
Profit sharing

Ability to commute/relocate:

Clifden, County Galway: reliably commute or plan to relocate before starting work (required)

Experience:

management: 5 years (required)

Work authorisation:

Ireland (preferred)

Work Location: In person
