    They want you to live on the premises i.e. in the pub, I would guess.

    The way I interpret that advert is with an extra comma...so it says live in, cellar person. I.e you live on the premises (not necessarily the cellar!!) and work in the cellar/ cellar related duties.

    A cellar man is a live in pub worker - My friend is a qualified cellar man. You are responsible for incoming beer orders, stock control, cleaning the beer lines and making sure all the food hygiene standards are adhered to. Nice work if you can get it! :)

    According to Joolyknocker's comment it probably has Health and Safety aspects integrated with Food Hygiene qualifications and being able to estimate stock requirements- you'd probably have to be strong too but I doubt that goes on the qualification :p

    AFAIK in the pub trade it is a highly esteemed qualification (it just sounds a tad daft!)

    I think it is offered as City & Guilds? It was about 4 years ago when my friend completed hers.

    Any job is tough, I meant normally you expect a qualificaiton in electrical engineering, or automobile servicing, not a qualification in pub cellar work :p. Just a funny name lol
