Job Description:

General Manager – Premium Restaurant

Location: London

Salary: Up to £90,000

An opportunity to lead one of London’s most ambitious hospitality businesses.

This is not a role for someone looking to simply maintain standards. The business is at a pivotal stage of its journey, with significant investment behind it, a strong leadership team in place and a platform ready for growth. The foundations have been built; the product is receiving excellent feedback and there is now an opportunity for a commercially minded General Manager to take ownership and drive the next chapter.

Reporting into the COO, this role offers a high level of autonomy and would suit someone who enjoys operating with freedom, accountability and the ability to make decisions that genuinely impact the business.

The role:

  • Lead a large team across restaurant, bar and guest experience
  • Take full ownership of operational performance, profitability and commercial growth
  • Drive covers, revenue and guest engagement across the business
  • Work closely with the senior leadership team to shape strategy and performance
  • Develop and inspire a well-established management team
  • Act as the face of the business, building relationships with guests, partners and key stakeholder
  • Identify opportunities to improve performance, systems and processes
  • Take ownership of reporting, forecasting and financial performance

The person:

  • An experienced General Manager from a premium restaurant, hospitality or lifestyle-led environment
  • Commercially astute with a strong understanding of P&L management
  • Confident leading large teams and creating a culture of accountability
  • Entrepreneurial in approach and comfortable operating with autonomy
  • A natural leader who enjoys building relationships and developing people
  • Guest-focused whilst never losing sight of the numbers
  • Someone excited by the challenge of growing a business rather than simply maintaining on
