About the Business

A substantial and highly stable group with a robust commercial foundation owns and operates a growing hospitality portfolio across regional NSW. These venues are not managed as standalone profit centres; instead, they play a strategic role in shaping the identity of a master-planned community and supporting several major developments currently in the planning pipeline.

The portfolio, mostly located in Newcastle and its surrounds,



includes a busy restaurant with very strong numbers, a quick-service concept, and a retail venue with an incentive model already in place. Several more tenancies are plumbed and ready for food use. The new venture down the track also brings significant premium growth.

The Role

The COO role is a newly created group leadership position sitting above every venue, reporting only to the owner. No middle layer, no committee. Once direction is set, you have authority: hiring, firing, budget allocation, menu and operational calls.

You are measured on results and on building operations that run without you.

The job is to bring a layer of professional operational leadership to the portfolio. Systems, structure, financial discipline, and forward planning. Take the knowledge currently sitting in people’s heads and turn it into
