Multi-Site Venue Manager | Penola, SA | $95K-$100K + Benefits
 
Two venues. One strong leader. A lifestyle most people only dream about.
This is a rare opportunity to take genuine ownership of two established pubs in the heart of South Australia's Limestone Coast — the Royal Oak Hotel and the Prince of Wales Hotel in Penola. You'll be working within the Coonawarra wine region, one of Australia's most recognised food and wine destinations, with a loyal local community and consistent visitor trade year-round.
 
Reporting to an experienced Area Manager, you'll have real autonomy to lead both venues your way — while being backed by a group with the structure and support to set you up for success.
 
What the role looks like:

• Hands-on leadership across two venues day-to-day
• Building and developing engaged teams at both locations
• Full P&L accountability — budgets, labour, stock control and revenue growth
• Maintaining compliance across liquor licensing, food safety and WHS
• Moving between both venues and maintaining a consistent standard across each
• Building genuine relationships with the local Penola community

Who we're looking for:

• Proven experience running a busy hotel, pub or multi-department venue
• Strong commercial acumen — you understand the numbers and know how to move them
• A leader who gets stuck in alongside the team rather than managing from a distance
• Current RSA, RP Badge and RSG/Advanced Gaming
• Multi-site experience highly regarded — but the right character matters most

On offer:

• $95,000-$100,000 base salary
• High autonomy with genuine group support behind you
• Career development within a growing SA hospitality group
• A genuine lifestyle opportunity — Penola and the Limestone Coast are hard to beat

This role suits someone who sees regional as an opportunity, not a compromise. If you're considering a tree change or already know the region, we'd love to hear from you.
