General Manager - Lead an Eastern Suburbs Icon | $110K + Super Hospoworld Resourcing•Sydney, NSW, AU
This established Eastern Suburbs favourite has built an incredible reputation for fresh, beautifully presented food, polished yet personable service and an atmosphere that keeps locals coming back again and again.
Think restaurant-level quality with the warmth and energy of a buzzing neighbourhood institution.
Now, the business is looking for an exceptional Venue or General Manager to take the reins and lead it into a seriously exciting next chapter.
This isn't a role for someone who simply keeps things ticking over.
We're looking for a confident, commercially switched-on go-getter who can command a busy room, inspire a team and take complete ownership of the operation.
Someone with energy, maturity and "eyes in the back of their head."
Someone who can run the floor, lead the people and own the numbers.
You ARE customer service.
THE OPPORTUNITY
You'll join an already successful, high-performing venue with a hardworking team, loyal customer base and an owner who genuinely cares about his people and the experience they create.
But this is only the beginning.
A major expansion is planned for next year, bringing a significantly larger venue, a bigger team, increased trade and far greater leadership responsibility.
The opportunity is to come in now, learn what makes the business special, strengthen the operation and position yourself as a key leader in everything that comes next.
This is a highly visible, hands-on role.
Approximately 70% of your focus will be on guests, people, service and floor leadership, with the remaining 30% covering the commercial and technical side of the business.
You need to love both.
YOU'LL TAKE OWNERSHIP OF




Leading service and driving an exceptional guest experience
P&L; performance and overall commercial results
Rostering, labour forecasting and wage control
Budgets, sales, productivity and cost management
Recruitment, onboarding, training and team development
Building a positive, accountable and high-performing culture
Stock control, wastage and operational efficiencies
Maintaining exceptional standards across food, beverage and coffee
Daily operations, compliance and venue presentation
Identifying opportunities to improve performance and grow the business
Preparing the team and operation for the upcoming expansion
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
You could currently be:
A polished Restaurant Manager with strong commercial capability
A proven Venue Manager from a premium, high-volume operation
An exceptional Assistant General Manager ready to step up
An experienced General Manager who still loves guests, service and leading from the floor
Your background could be a premium neighbourhood restaurant, a leading all-day dining venue, a high-volume restaurant group or a polished hospitality operation where quality and pace are equally important.
What matters is that you understand exceptional hospitality, know how to drive commercial performance and genuinely enjoy being present with your team and guests.
You'll be the kind of manager who notices a guest waiting, a section under pressure,



service beginning to slow and a labour issue developing- all at the same time.
You won't hide behind a laptop while the floor struggles, but you also won't avoid the numbers.
You can move confidently between leading a busy service, coaching a team member, reviewing labour, managing costs and planning for future growth.
YOU'LL BRING
Proven leadership experience within a premium, high-volume hospitality venue
Strong P&L;, rostering, labour and cost-control capability
Genuine warmth, confidence and presence on the floor
High service standards without stiffness or ego
The ability to lead from the front and hold people accountable
Commercial intelligence and strong decision-making skills
Excellent attention to detail and operational awareness
A natural ability to build relationships with guests and teams
Energy, resilience and the confidence to take ownership
An understanding of coffee quality and workflow within an all-day operation
WHY THIS ONE IS SPECIAL
Beautiful Eastern Suburbs location
Established and highly regarded operation
Restaurant-quality food made with freshness and care
Premium service without the pretentiousness
Loyal local customer base
Hardworking, committed and welcoming team
A genuinely lovely owner who cares deeply about his people
Real trust, ownership and autonomy
Major expansion planned for next year
Opportunity to lead a significantly larger venue and team
Genuine long-term progression within a growing business
If you can run the room, own the numbers, develop excellent people and deliver hospitality that keeps guests coming back, this could be an incredibly exciting next move.
