Bar Manager at De Plesman - The Hague

De Plesman is based in a historic monument, and is currently transformed into a brand-new lifestyle hospitality concept. All the (wonderful - if we can say so) basics are there: an astonishing monumental building, a restaurant, a bar, a gym and meeting rooms. But de Plesman is not your regular hotel, we do things differently around here.  

So.. what is different you ask? We are bold. We are looking for someone who wants to evolve hospitality together with us. We believe our team members are at the heart of our hotel and make it such a special place. We can’t do this alone though, and hence we are looking for you to lead the daily operations of our bar ‘Albert’ at De Plesman. 
 
Do you recognize yourself?  

• You don’t consider yourself precious cargo: we leave our pride at the door and are the first ones to raise their hand in order to help each other to get things done. We are a team, every day of the week.  

• You are a hundred per cent yourself. You’re fun and kind. You take your job seriously, but yourself not too much. You believe sharing a few laughs goes a long way.  

• You are not afraid to make bold choices in order to ensure guests have truly amazing experiences. Making the right decision on the spot comes naturally to you.  

• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other and has fun along the way.  

 What will you be doing?   

• As Bar Manager, you’ll boldly take charge of the daily operations of our bar, Albert, where fun and sophistication come together to create a standout experience. 

• Your curiosity and creativity will shine as you set trends, develop sophisticated new menus and cocktails, all while promoting the bar to external guests and businesses. 

• You will ensure kind, personalized guest experiences by evaluating satisfaction, focusing on improvement areas, and training and motivating your team to boldly exceed guest expectations. 

• With a fun yet professional approach, you’ll take responsibility for recruiting and evaluating your team, and setting ambitious departmental goals that align with our sophisticated standards. 

• You will curiously explore and optimize procedures to boost revenue while improving the management of beverage and staffing costs with a bold and effective strategy. You won’t do this alone, you will do this together with the F&B Manager. 

• You take care of the cost and margin management, finding the right balance between profitability and delivering the highest quality experience.
