Job Description
Assistant Manager | Balaclava Hotel
We’re on the hunt for our next Assistant Manager to help keep the Balaclava Hotel buzzing and loved by the locals.
We are looking for a dynamic Assistant Manager to lead the team at this quintessential pub!
The Balaclava Hotel is a multi-faceted venue on Mulgrave Road featuring a Graziers Steakhouse, a lively Sports Bar, and modern budget-conscious accommodation. As a key community hub in Earlville, it specialises in delivering high-quality, locally sourced dining and a family-friendly atmosphere for locals and North Queensland travelers alike.
A day in the life of an Assistant Manager:
• Get to know the locals so well they think you’re part of the crew
• Support the Publican to keep the pub running smoothly, safely, and with a great vibe
• Learn the ropes of being a Publican while leading a team of absolute hospo legends
• Handle hiccups before they turn into headaches
• Bring the energy, the service, and the smiles every single shift
Inherent requirements:
• This is a hands-on role that involves manual handling and lifting as part of regular duties (e.g. moving stock, kegs, and deliveries). Applicants must have the ability to perform physical tasks safely and efficiently.
About you:
• You’ve been around the bar, bistro, or gaming room block, and maybe already done some supervising
• You’ve learned from great managers and now you’re ready to step up
• You’ve got the confidence, pride, and people skills to be the face of the pub when the boss is away
• You’ve got a current RSA and RSG/RCG as per state requirements
If you’re keen to learn, lead, and laugh while making this pub the best spot in town – we’d love to hear from you.
The benefits are good too!
