Full-time Permanent Manager
Description
Otley Garden Centre has recently been refurbished and is looking better than ever – fresh, modern, and ready to welcome even more customers. Our restaurant is right at the heart of the experience, and we’re looking for someone special to lead it.
The role in a nutshell
This is your chance to run a busy, vibrant restaurant where no two days are the same. You’ll be at the helm of our catering operation – leading the team, delighting customers, and making sure everything runs like clockwork (even on the busiest cake-and-coffee rush!).
This is a full time role working 37 hours per week including alternate weekends
- Leading, motivating and developing a fantastic team of supervisors, chefs, and front-of-house colleagues
- Creating a welcoming, smooth-running restaurant that customers love coming back to
- Keeping standards sky-high – from food hygiene to presentation
- Managing rotas, stock, and costs to keep the business performing strongly
- Working with chefs on menus and seasonal ideas (yes, including those big events everyone loves!)
- Handling the occasional tricky situation with customers – calmly and professionally
- Helping shape the future direction of the restaurant with forward planning and fresh ideas
What we’re looking for
You’ll probably already be managing a large, fast-paced catering or hospitality operation and ready for your next challenge.
We’re looking for someone who:
- Is a natural leader who brings energy and positivity
- Loves working with people and gets the best out of a team
- Is organised, commercially aware, and comfortable juggling priorities
- Keeps calm under pressure and leads from the front
- Has a passion for great food, service, and customer experience
- A brand-new, beautifully refurbished restaurant to be proud of
- A role where you can really make your mark
- Supportive leadership and a collaborative team environment
- The chance to bring ideas to life – from menus to events
- A business that genuinely values customer experience and team development
