Restaurant Manager, Asian Restaurant

We are currently seeking an assured, inspiring and commercially astute Restaurant Manager to lead our exciting new Asian restaurant, launching in spring/summer 2027.

The restaurant will be inspired by some of the greatest culinary capitals of Asia, bringing together exceptional Japanese and Chinese cuisine, world-class drinks and cocktails, immersive design and genuine hospitality to create an experience unlike anywhere else in Scotland.

The new restaurant will be housed in the North Lodge, a standalone building nestled in the grounds of the hotel. Throughout the years, the lodge has served many different purposes, once housing the office of Jackie Stewart, who founded the Shooting School at Gleneagles in 1985.

One of the world’s most iconic luxury hotels and sporting retreats, Gleneagles has been making memories for a century. Crowned ‘Employer of the Year’ at the 2024 Cateys, Number One Resort in the UK & Ireland by readers of the Travel + Leisure for their 2025 World’s Best Awards, and awarded Three Michelin Keys, the highest distinction awarded by the Michelin Guide, Gleneagles is recognised as one of the world's most exceptional luxury hospitality destinations.

Everything we do is about surpassing expectations and creating unrivalled adventures for our guests.

We’re devoted to making our people feel as valued as our guests. In this way, we strive to support the whole ‘you’ - not just the professional part but the personal part too. People join our team for all sorts of reasons. Some work here permanently to develop a career, some work seasonally, while others have a schedule to fit around their personal commitments.

However long you plan to stay with us and whatever hours you’d prefer to work, we’re open to flexible working requests and offer hours, shift patterns and contract types to suit everyone.
