Are you a lively and characterful Publican local to Camberley looking for a new challenge? The Wheatsheaf could be the pub for you.

Pub and location

You’ll discover the Wheatsheaf on the outskirts of Camberley in a small shopping precinct next to Heatherside Park. Camberley is situated in Surrey and close to the M3 motorway, with access to London in one hour and to the south coast via Southampton.

The Wheatsheaf is the most popular local pub, offering the best pint and great value pub food where friends and families gather, new friendships are made, and experiences are shared.

It’s a characterful and authentic community hub at the heart of all that goes on in Camberley. You will show SKY and TNT Sports throughout the week, have pub teams for pool and darts, run quizzes, monthly entertainment, discos, karaoke, and hold birthday parties with charity events. The ideal Publican will provide something for all ages and tastes.

The pub has two bars. One trades as a sport-led bar, while the other has a quieter, cosier feel. It has a very distinct character due to its design.

Constructed in the 1970s as part of the estate it sits within, it’s the creation of a famous church architect, giving the pub a unique feel.

While the pub has no car park, there is parking for the shops and a small recreation park within sight of the pub. The large garden to the front and side should ensure excellent summer trading opportunities. The pub will also benefit from an internal and external investment before reopening.

Ideal Publican

We’re seeking a characterful and energetic Publican who loves people and sports and has a vision for this pub. You will be an experienced and passionate operator who excels as the host/hostess and a consummate professional who delegates to a well-trained and engaging team.

We’re seeking a Publican capable of handling all aspects of the business and ensuring consistency from the cellar to service. You will also become an integral part of the local community, be knowledgeable and passionate about the drink offered, and deliver excellent training to your staff.

You will have some kitchen experience, which will help you launch your food offer to complement the drinks range. You will be proud to manage this as a safe and welcoming environment for all the demographics who should meet in this broad occasion-based business.

Another key skill you will need is to bring your pub to life on social media to drive new footfall.
