We are not looking for someone who simply wants the title of manager. We want someone who takes ownership of the restaurant while they are on duty. You should be the person who notices when a guest has been waiting too long, an employee needs coaching, a table isn't being properly maintained, an event detail has been overlooked, or the restaurant is beginning to lose its rhythm, and then does something about it.

At the same time, you should enjoy developing people, creating memorable guest experiences, promoting the restaurant, and helping turn special events into reasons for guests to return. If you are an experienced restaurant professional who combines operational discipline with hospitality, creativity, and initiative, we'd like to hear from you.

Pay: $35,000.00 - $41,000.00 per year
