Description

Work hard, be nice. That’s our motto! There’s no fancy jargon or 3\-minute speech to give you, we just like to work hard and be nice.

WHO ARE WE?

Since our first venue opened in 2015, Rarebreed Dining has been driven by an uncompromising commitment to quality, and an ambition to deliver experiences that go beyond our guests’ expectations – every single time. What began with a shared passion for exceptional steak, outstanding produce and expertly crafted cocktails has evolved into something much bigger, but our focus has never changed: doing things properly, and always raising the bar.

At the heart of everything we do are our people. We truly believe that creating the right culture – one that inspires, supports, and challenges our teams – is fundamental to our success. By investing in our people, we empower them to deliver unforgettable moments for every guest who walks through our doors.

Our Waverley site, opened in 2020, is our latest addition and has quickly become a staple in Weybridge. Known for its premium feel, attention to detail, and consistently exceptional standards, it perfectly represents everything Rarebreed Dining stands for today.

THE ROLE

We’re looking for an exceptional General Manager to lead our Waverley site – someone with a meticulous eye for detail and a deep understanding of what truly great hospitality looks and feels like.

This is a role for a leader who can deliver the perfect balance of approachable warmth and professional polish. Our guests come to the Waverley Inn for a reason: they expect consistency, familiarity, and a premium experience every single time. It’s your responsibility to ensure those expectations aren’t jut met, but exceeded – through flawless execution and unwavering focus on the smallest details.

You’ll set the tone for the entire restaurant, creating a culture where standards are instinctive, service feels seamless, and nothing is overlooked. From the guest journey to team presentation, from product quality to atmosphere, you’ll champion a ‘no shortcuts’ approach in everything the team does. Working closely with the Managing Directors, you’ll take full ownership of performance, while developing a team that understands what excellence looks like – and delivers it with confidence and consistency every day.
