The Company
We are working with a VERY cool hospitality brand who are opening up a snazzy new, F&B-led private members club & flexi space so we’re on the look out for a General Manager to open the Club and run it! (we will explore opening specialists though!)
Alongside the usuals (below), personality is HUGE for this appointment. We’re not looking for a carbon copy GM from another members club. Yes, you may come from one – and a good one at that – but it’s not about cut and pasting what you did there. It’s about creating something special in its own right.
The Club is slap bang in the West End, opens in 2022 and is stunning, it just needs someone special to build the finest of all teams and run it. SO if you come from a lifestyle hospitality brand, have opening experience and are curious to hear more, do get in touch.

Dan
Account Director
I’ve had a pretty colourful career pre-Troika – I’ve been a bell boy, a waiter, sold Faberge Eggs and electricity door-to-door, ran an Irish Pub in Uganda, a busy events department in Covent Garden, designed stands for a TV Festival, helped open a members club and ran a little events business of my own.
As a candidate, Troika were my go-to recruiters so there was no other place I wanted to be when I decided on my new career path. I’m delighted to be working with such an amazing team and am passionate about matching the brightest talent to their perfect role.
