We're known for delivering genuine hospitality, exceptional food and beverage, and memorable guest experiences.
We're looking for an experienced Food & Beverage Manager to lead our entire food and beverage operation.
This is a hands-on operational leadership role, not a desk-based management position.
You'll spend the majority of your time on the floor leading service, supporting your team, engaging with guests, and ensuring every shift runs seamlessly.
The Role
Reporting to the General Manager, you'll be responsible for the day-to-day leadership of Byron Bay Oyster Bar and Horizon Rooftop Bar.
You'll lead from the front, setting the standard for service while ensuring the business achieves its financial and operational goals.
Your Responsibilities
Lead front-of-house operations across both venues.
Be present on the floor during peak service periods, actively managing shifts and supporting the team.
Coach, mentor and develop supervisors and front-of-house staff through hands‐on leadership.
Recruit, train and onboard new team members.
Prepare rosters and manage labour costs to budget.
Maintain exceptional guest service standards and resolve guest concerns professionally.
Work collaboratively with the Executive Chef and kitchen team to deliver seamless service.
Drive beverage sales and maximise revenue opportunities.




Oversee stock control, ordering and venue presentation.
Ensure compliance with RSA, food safety and WHS requirements.
Monitor financial performance and implement improvements where required.
About You
You love hospitality and believe the best leaders are visible, approachable, and willing to jump in wherever needed.
You'll bring:
Proven experience in a Food & Beverage Manager or senior restaurant management role.
A genuine passion for leading service from the floor rather than from an office.
Confidence managing busy lunch, dinner and rooftop bar services.
Solid leadership and people development skills.
Excellent organisational and communication abilities.
Sound commercial understanding, including labour management and cost control.
Current NSW RSA.
Availability to work a rotating roster, including evenings, weekends and public holidays.
Why Hotel Marvell?
Lead the food and beverage operation of one of Byron Bay's leading boutique hotels.
Work across two unique and vibrant venues.
Be part of a supportive leadership team that values initiative, accountability and great hospitality.
Competitive salary package and opportunities for professional growth.
If you're the type of leader who enjoys being on the floor, inspiring your team and delivering exceptional guest experiences every day, we'd love to hear from you.
