There are Restaurant Manager roles - and then there are opportunities to take ownership of a serious dining room and be part of something being built for the long term.
We are looking for an experienced Restaurant Manager to join a substantial new CBD dining destination with a strong service culture, high expectations and a genuinely ambitious hospitality team.
This is a 170-seat restaurant and bar operating from lunch through to late, with a six-person management structure and genuine shared leadership across the week.
What we're looking for
You are already a confident Restaurant Manager who knows what great hospitality looks like.
You will ideally have experience in a premium, high-volume Sydney restaurant or hospitality group and be comfortable leading a sizeable team, managing service, driving standards and dealing confidently with guests.
Importantly, this role has a strong administrative and organisational component - rosters, systems, communication, reporting and keeping the operation moving properly matter just as much as being visible on the floor.
We're looking for someone who:
- Takes genuine pride in presentation, service and detail
- Leads from the front and sets the standard for the team
- Is commercially aware and highly organised
- Has excellent communication skills
- Enjoys developing people and building a strong team
- Has the confidence and personality to deal with a sophisticated Sydney clientele
- Brings energy, maturity and a genuine passion for hospitality
The opportunity This is a serious restaurant, a reliable team and a role where high standards are expected - and career progression is real.
The working week is structured around a shared management team, with an expectation of 45 hours per week or less, rather than the endless hours often associated with senior restaurant management.
$90K–$105K base + super + tips, depending on experience.
