Job description

Pub Operator Opportunity: Sam Webbs, Douglas

If you’ve ever dreamed of running your own pub, Sam Webbs in Douglas could be the opportunity that turns that dream into your day‑to‑day reality. This is a self‑employed business opportunity through the Okell’s Independent Partnership — not an employed role — giving you the freedom to run your own pub with the support of a respected local brewery behind you.

The Partnership

As an Okell’s Independent Partner, you operate as your own boss. You earn a market‑leading percentage share of turnover, from which you pay your team, insurance and accountancy costs. Okell’s covers the remaining operational costs, allowing you to focus on running a great pub, building a loyal community and shaping the business in your own style.

About Sam Webbs

Sam Webbs sits right in the heart of Douglas and has long been a favourite for locals and visitors. It’s known for its well‑kept Okell’s ales, friendly staff and warm, lively atmosphere. Its central location makes it a natural meeting point, and during TT it becomes a destination in its own right, buzzing with visiting bikers and packed with energy.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out

Taking on Sam Webbs means stepping into a pub with a strong reputation, steady footfall and a built‑in community. You’ll have the freedom to run the business your way, backed by Okell’s support, guidance and brewery expertise. This is your chance to create a thriving pub that reflects your personality, your leadership and your vision.
