GENERAL MANAGER - NEW OPENING

GENERAL MANAGER – NEW OPENING

LONDON
£65,000–£70,000 INCLUSIVE OF TRONC + BONUS

I’m working on a brilliant new opening in London and looking for a General Manager to take the lead.

Opening this Winter, this is a completely new restaurant concept centred around an open grill, with around 70 covers and a much more elevated style of dining and service.

We’re looking for someone from a strong premium restaurant background who understands what great hospitality looks like, but importantly, someone who genuinely wants to get stuck into a new opening.

THE ROLE

You’ll have full accountability for the restaurant, from commercial performance and P&L through to the guest journey, people and standards.You’ll work closely with the Operations team and owners through the opening period, building the team, embedding the culture and getting the restaurant ready for launch.There will be a Restaurant Manager alongside you, as well as Duty Managers and Supervisors, with dedicated Reception and Guest Relations leadership also being recruited.This is very much a hands-on GM role. We need someone who is happy being on the floor, knows their guests, develops their team and isn’t afraid to roll their sleeves up when needed.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

You’ll already be operating at General Manager level within a premium restaurant environment, ideally with experience of a new opening.You don’t necessarily need to come from a huge restaurant group. The level of service, guest experience and quality of operation is far more important.You’ll be commercially strong, comfortable with full accountability and confident leading a busy restaurant, but equally passionate about the people and guest side of the business.Most importantly, you need to be excited by growth.There are further openings already planned, and for the right person there is a genuine opportunity to grow with the business beyond this restaurant.
