Venue Manager - College Farm

Location: College Farm, Stow Rd, Cheltenham GL54 2HN

IMPACT EVOLVE is proud to be working exclusively with Hawkstone to support the search for a Venue Manager to lead the hospitality operation at College Farm.

Hawkstone has had huge momentum over the last 12 months. What started as one of the most talked-about challenger brands in the drinks space has continued to grow quickly, building real traction across retail, hospitality and brand presence. With the business continuing to scale, College Farm is now becoming a much bigger part of that next chapter.

The site already performs well through tours, retail and the current taproom setup, but the plan now is to take it several steps further. The venue is being developed into a more ambitious hospitality destination, with an upgraded tent, expanded shop, food vendors, outdoor spaces and a stronger events programme all forming part of the next phase.

This role is about taking ownership of that hospitality operation and helping shape what it becomes.

It is not a maintenance role, and it is not a standard pub GM position. It is a chance to run and grow a multi-faceted venue around one of the most recognisable brands in the UK drinks market. The right person will be commercially sharp, operationally strong, hands-on when needed, and excited by the challenge of building something as it evolves.
