A NEW pub in Runcorn is set to employ 40 people.

The Queen of Hearts will open in Sutton Park in October under new pub manager Michelle Wood.

The jobs available range from front of house to kitchen chefs, porters and many more. Alongside each role will include training and the opportunity to work towards apprenticeships and NVQs.

The Marstons-run Queen of Hearts will host a selection of drinks ranging from cask ale to gin and cocktails, while offering a range of meal options.

“I’m extremely excited about The Queen of Hearts and hope when opened it will build a great reputation locally. We’re looking for employees to join us on this exciting journey and will help provide the best experiences possible for our customers,” said Michelle.
