About this opportunity
We're recruiting a Restaurant Manager for our Dandenong location, with more venues opening as we grow. This is our most senior in-store role, for an experienced hospitality leader ready to take full ownership of a venue and grow with the Munch team.
If you love hospitality, thrive in a fast-paced setting, and take real pride in leading teams and delivering exceptional food and guest experiences, we'd love to hear from you.
About the role
The Restaurant Manager is the most senior leader in the store, accountable for the total performance of the venue, team, culture, guest experience, food quality and financial results. You set the tone, hold the standards, and drive the results.
This is a hands‐on leadership role. You'll lead from the floor, coach in real time, and build a strong, accountable team culture. As our venue trades into the evening, this is a full-time, evening-based leadership role across a 7-day operation.
Key responsibilities:
Leading and developing a high‐performing team
Owning P&L;, sales performance and cost control (food cost, labour, average spend)
Rostering effectively and managing productivity
Driving exceptional guest experience and service standards
Maintaining food quality, presentation and brand consistency
Hiring, onboarding and managing performance of team members




Building and improving the systems and standards that keep the venue running consistently
Upholding food safety, cleanliness and compliance standards
About you
Minimum 2 year in a Restaurant Manager role (not shift supervisor)
Strong commercial awareness — you understand the financial drivers of a venue and can own the numbers
A quality‐first mindset with no desire to cut corners
Calm, solution‐focused, and confident holding standards
Experienced in hiring, training and developing teams
Passionate about food and consistently great guest experiences
You lead with clarity. You care about the details. You build teams people want to be part of.
Bonus points for:
Experience opening a new venue or working in a growing multi‐site business
Dessert, café or fast‐casual background
Experience building SOPs or operational systems
Why join us
$75,000–$85,000 base
, depending on experience
KPI‐based performance bonuses
tied to the results you control — food cost, labour, and average spend
A genuine path to Operations Manager
as we open new venues
Structured leadership and business development
to grow your management skills
Real autonomy to run your venue
Free desserts and drinks
About Munch
