Hunter & Scout is a much-loved café in the heart of Graceville, known for wholesome food, great coffee, and warm hospitality. With a vibrant courtyard, a loyal local following, and a welcoming atmosphere, we’ve built a reputation as a true neighbourhood favourite.
We’re now looking for an experienced Cafe/Restaurant Manager to lead our front-of-house team and oversee the day-to-day operations. This is a hands-on role with supportive owners who value trust and consistency, and a team and customer base that make the job genuinely rewarding.
About the role
This is a full time position, 5 consecutive days per week including weekends. With no night shifts, the hours are well-suited to someone seeking stability and work-life balance — whether that’s more time with family, evenings free, or the chance to enjoy life outside of work. While weekend availability is important, some weekends off can be negotiated.
Responsibilities include:
Overseeing and coordinating front-of-house operations
Leading, training, and mentoring the team
Delivering exceptional customer service and resolving guest needs with care
Supporting with barista duties when needed (experience required)
Light ordering, stock oversight, and ensuring compliance with health and safety standards
What we’re looking for:
A minimum of 2 years in a café or restaurant management role
Strong people skills and proven leadership ability
Barista experience in a busy café environment
A reliable, organised manager who values professionalism and consistency
Availability to work weekends (with some weekends off negotiable)
Why join us?
Daytime hours 7am - 3pm
A positive, motivated team culture and loyal customers who make the job rewarding
The chance to take ownership of a role in a café that’s genuinely loved by the community
Free all day parking and across the road from the Graceville train station and buses running from right outside our door
If you’re an experienced hospitality qualified looking for a role where you can enjoy a supportive workplace and lead with confidence in a café loved by its community, we’d love to hear from you.
