About El Jannah El Jannah began in 1998 in Granville, Sydney, with a simple idea: serve honest, authentic Lebanese-Australian food that brings people together. More than two decades on, our charcoal chicken, bold flavours and energetic restaurants have made us one of Australia's most loved food brands, with restaurants across NSW, the ACT and Victoria. As we grow, we stay focused on what matters most: great food, great people and genuine connection.

About The Role Working closely with the Restaurant Manager, you'll help lead the team, drive high standards across food quality, service, safety and cleanliness, and contribute to strong commercial performance. As part of the team, you'll also help train our crew and set the culture and standards that every future El Jannah will be measured against. This is a hands-on leadership role suited to someone who enjoys being on the floor, leading from the front and building a positive, high-performing team culture.
