Restaurant Team Leader

We are seeking a dynamic and experienced General Manager to lead our restaurant operations. This is a hands-on role for a true floor leader—someone who can build a strong team, run clean service, and own the business results (sales, labor, guest experience, and standards).

Key Responsibilities:

• Own day-to-day restaurant operations: pre-shift, service execution, floor management, pacing, and guest recovery
• Hire, train, coach, and retain a high-performing FOH team (hosts, servers, bartenders, support)
• Build scheduling and staffing plans that hit labor targets without sacrificing hospitality
• Implement and enforce steps of service, sidework standards, cash handling, comps/voids controls, and accountability
• Partner with leadership to improve systems: opening/closing checklists, training materials, and service flow
• Manage reservations and guest communications to maximize covers and protect the experience
• Oversee beverage/FOH inventory controls, ordering, and vendor coordination (in collaboration with leadership)
• Track KPIs and report weekly on performance: covers, check average, labor %, comps/voids, guest feedback, and issues requiring action

Requirements:

• 3–5+ years as a GM (or strong AGM ready to step up) in a busy, full-service restaurant
• Excellent floor presence—calm, decisive, and guest-first under pressure
• Strong leadership and culture-building: training, accountability, and retention matter here
• Comfortable managing labor, costs, and operational controls (P&L literacy is a big plus)
• High standards for cleanliness, organization, communication, and consistency
• POS + reservations platform experience (Toast/OpenTable/Resy experience a plus)

Compensation & Perks:

• Competitive salary based on experience + performance incentives
• Growth opportunity with a concept focused on quality, consistency, and long-term team building
