GENERAL MANAGER – PREMIUM NEIGHBOURHOOD RESTAURANT

LONDON

£60,000 + BONUS

THE ROLE

We are looking for a brilliant General Manager to join an established, independent restaurant business in North London. A busy, all-day dining operation with a great reputation, a loyal local following and a real focus on warm, personable hospitality.
This is a lovely business with a strong identity, a great product and plenty of personality. We need someone who can bring fresh energy, strong leadership and a genuine passion for looking after people.
The role is incredibly hands-on. We want someone who absolutely loves being on the floor, touching tables, building relationships with regulars and creating that lovely buzz that makes a neighbourhood restaurant somewhere people want to return to.
You'll be responsible for the day-to-day operation, leading and developing the team, driving service standards and ensuring the restaurant runs like a well-oiled machine. Commercially, you'll need to be confident with the numbers, but this is very much a people and service-led role.

THE PERSON

We are looking for someone from a quality casual dining, all-day dining or independent restaurant background.
Someone who understands great food and service but equally knows how to create a relaxed, informal atmosphere with plenty of energy.
Personality is key! We don't want a cookie-cutter operator. We want someone with character, a bit of creativity and the confidence to bring their own style to the business.
You could be working within a larger restaurant group and looking for something a little more independent or already operating in a similar neighbourhood environment.
You'll need to be a strong leader, great with your team, naturally engaging with guests and someone who really takes pride in the finer details.
A great opportunity to join a successful, established business where you can make a genuine impact, build a brilliant team and really take ownership of the operation.
