About Sana Mediterranean

At Sana Mediterranean, we believe healthy food should never mean compromising on flavour, quality or enjoyment.

Inspired by the vibrant flavours and generosity of Mediterranean hospitality, we're bringing a fresh perspective to the way Australians eat. Our food is chef-driven, made with quality ingredients and designed to make eating well something people genuinely look forward to.

But Sana is about more than what's on the plate.

We're building a hospitality brand where great food, genuine human connection and a positive team culture come together. We believe in looking after our people, making every guest feel welcome and creating restaurants that become part of their local communities.

With a growing presence across Sydney and ambitious plans for the future, we're looking for passionate hospitality leaders who share our values and want to help shape what comes next.

The Opportunity

We're looking for Restaurant Managers who love food, love people and take pride in creating exceptional hospitality experiences.

This isn't just about running a restaurant. It's about creating an environment where your team enjoys coming to work, your guests love coming back and the little things are done exceptionally well.

You'll have the opportunity to take genuine ownership of your restaurant, develop a high-performing team and contribute to the growth of an exciting Australian hospitality brand.

We're looking for leaders who bring energy, positivity and accountability to everything they do. People who lead by example, care about the details and understand that great restaurant performance starts with great people.

Who We're Looking For
