We are looking for an experienced, engaging and passionate individual to join our team as an Assistant General Manager. You will bring out the very best in your team by developing individual talent, inspiring high performance and leading by example to deliver exceptional experiences for our guests.

We believe it is our people who set us apart. If you are passionate, warm, authentic and committed to excellence, we'd love to hear from you. You will be a confident communicator, an inspiring team player, willing to learn, proactive in your approach and committed to delivering the highest standards of hospitality whilst living our values every day.

More about the role

As an Assistant General Manager, you will play a key role in supporting the General Manager to deliver the overall success of the restaurant. You will focus on the four key drivers of the business: People, Operational Excellence, Revenue and Profit. Whilst the General Manager retains overall accountability, you will work in partnership to deliver business objectives and drive exceptional results.

In the General Manager's absence, you will take responsibility for leading the restaurant, ensuring operational excellence, maintaining high standards and inspiring the team to deliver an outstanding guest experience. Depending on your strengths and experience, you will primarily lead either the Front of House or Back of House operation, whilst remaining flexible and capable of supporting all areas of the business when required.

As a member of the Senior Management Team, you will report directly to the General Manager. This is a 45-hour contract based on an annual average, meaning your weekly hours may vary throughout the year to meet the needs of the business. Your working time includes dedicated administrative time to ensure you can effectively complete all aspects of the role.
