16 Hospitality is a fast-growing hospitality group looking for a Deputy General Manager to be part of their team at the Partridge in Stretton, which opened in May 2017, up to 22-25K dependant on experience plus TRONC.

The name aims to reflect 16 Hospitality’s simple yet effective ethos; to offer quality British food, served by a friendly team of hospitality experts in comfortable surroundings. The name of The Partridge, which was reinvented as a traditional inn with 10 exceptional bedrooms, was decided upon due to the sites countryside connections and as English partridge are regularly spotted in the local area.

After undergoing a complete transformation, supported by a £1m investment (after the freehold acquisition), The Partridge, formally known as The Hollow Tree, joined 16 Hospitality’s four other pubs, which are located across Cheshire and Anglesey, The Swan in Tarporley, The Old Hall in Frodsham, The White Eagle in Rhoscolyn and The Oyster Catcher in Rhosneigr.
