At Guzman y Gomez Mexican Kitchen, our mission has always been to reinvent fast-food. We're Australia's only fast-food restaurant to be 100% clean, meaning there are no added preservatives, artificial flavours, added colours or unacceptable additives in our food. We're incredibly proud of our amazing people, and the unique way we celebrate Mexican culture in everything we do.
Job Description
We're looking for a Restaurant Manager to take ownership of one of our high-volume North Brisbane restaurants — with the added opportunity to develop your skills by supporting our other restaurants across the North Brisbane area.
This is a great next step if you want exposure beyond a single site: you'll build experience managing across multiple restaurants, work alongside other leaders in the region, and set yourself up for the next level of growth within GYG — whether that's a bigger restaurant, an area support role, or franchise ownership down the track.
You'll take full ownership of the day-to-day running of your restaurant, lift the guest experience from excellent to remarkable, coach and develop your team, and manage inventory and financial performance — while flexing into neighbouring North Brisbane restaurants as needed to share your experience and pick up new ones.
What You'll Be Doing
Operational Execution
Run day-to-day operations to GYG's food, safety and quality standards — every order, every time
Manage inventory, scheduling, equipment, security and compliance across your restaurant
Step into neighbouring North Brisbane restaurants when needed to support coverage and share best practice
People Management
Recruit, train and develop your crew, Cooks, Shift Leaders and Assistant Managers
Lead by example, give honest feedback, and manage performance fairly and consistently




Build a team that's ready to grow with you — including across other restaurants in the group
Guest Experience
Lead a team that delivers a memorable guest experience, every visit
Keep speed of service and cleanliness standards on point
Handle guest feedback and complaints quickly and well
Take ownership of your restaurant's P&L; — COGS, cost of labour, operating expenses and sales
Spot sales trends, run local area marketing, and act on the numbers
Keep inventory, cash handling and reporting accurate and on time
Food Safety & WH&S;
Keep your restaurant compliant with GYG's food safety and WH&S; standards at all times
Close out incidents, hazards and checklist gaps promptly
What We're Looking For
Experience leading a team in a busy, high-volume hospitality environment
A track record of delivering exceptional customer service
Robust communication skills — clear, honest, and able to adapt to different people
Experience hitting KPIs and driving profitability
Comfortable working across more than one site and adapting to different teams
Willingness to complete (or already hold) Food Safety Supervisor, RSA, First Aid and Liquor License certifications
Solid financial acumen — comfortable reading a P&L; and acting on it
Confident with Microsoft Office, and willing to get across GYG systems (Micros, MyInventory, GOMEX, TANDA, Viva GYG)
What's In It For You
A launching pad into multi-site and area-level experience — rare at this stage of a hospitality career
Career growth pathways across Australia and internationally
Invitation to the Annual Restaurant Managers Summit
Pathway to become a franchisee
Quarterly bonus scheme
Free uniform
