Wayward Brewing Co in Camperdown has won a staggering number of awards including winning best NSW brewery taproom four times in the Beer Cartel annual craft beer survey. 
 
Wayward is a rapidly expanding independent brewery, crafting award-winning beer and hard seltzer in Sydney’s Inner West. As a close-knit team, we love working (and socialising) together to create high-quality beverages that are enjoyed by millions of Australians and distributed to thousands of bottle shops and venues across the country.
 
We’re looking for a top venue manager to join the team and help us continue to deliver great experiences to our loyal customers.

We pride ourselves on having a friendly, inclusive, and relaxed taproom that offers customers a great craft brewery experience. The successful applicant will not only be an experienced venue manager with a passion for customer service but will also bring to the table an entrepreneurial spirit and desire to contribute to the success of Wayward through marketing, promotion and executing events.

Essential requirements and key job roles:

  • Experience in venue management
  • Management of the guest experience and continually looking for opportunities to improve
  • Lead and coach a small close-knit team ensuring that the culture of the taproom lives and breathes our passion for great customer service, a friendly atmosphere and a love of beer
  • Staff management, including rostering, costing, recruitment and coaching
  • Cellar management, including beer ordering (we have guest taps) to ensure that we always have a diverse and constantly changing beer selection
  • Management of our web store and merchandising
  • Contribute to a culture of care and safety in the taproom for both team and guests
  • An eye for detail, ensuring venue presentation is always at a high standard
  • A business mindset that is always thinking of new ways to engage with the community to generate trade for the taproom and to keep our loyal customers coming back
