About Blank Street
At Blank Street, we’re building the defining food and beverage brand of our generation. We believe the little moments that shape your day are often the most important, and they deserve to be special. Over the last five years, we’ve crafted a unique menu, designed distinctive spaces, and built a hospitality experience around one vision: turning everyday moments like your morning coffee or afternoon matcha into a daily luxury. It all starts with our people and their commitment to make magic happen every day.
The Role
We’re opening in Liverpool and we’re looking for a General Manager to lead it from the ground up. This will be Blank Street’s flagship location in your city—a single, high‑volume flagship that will represent the highest expression of our brand. You will build the team, launch the store, and own the full experience.
Who You Are
We’re looking for someone who is equal parts hospitality‑first operator and entrepreneur. As a hospitality‑first operator, you hold yourself to a higher standard than anyone would ask of you, and you coach the team in the same way. You obsess over the details, thrive in high‑volume environments, are passionate about our products, and care about delivering genuine moments of connection. As an entrepreneur, you love building from scratch: hiring a team, setting a culture, opening the doors, and figuring out how to raise the bar from there.
