Reporting to the Restaurant Manager, you'll lead the floor team on each shift, keep service running smoothly and take charge when the manager is off site. This is a hands-on supervisory role: we expect you to serve guests and support the team during quiet periods, not just direct from the sidelines. It's a excellent next step for a senior waiter or bartender ready to move into leadership, with a clear pathway to Assistant or Restaurant Manager.
