Assistant General Manager

Vic’s, a NoHo staple rooted in the traditions of regional, seasonal Italian cuisine, is looking for a passionate ASSISTANT GENERAL MANAGER to join our hospitality team. We’re seeking someone who values genuine service, celebrates Italian food and wine, and brings warmth and professionalism to every guest interaction.

Our home carries a rich legacy. For 15 years, this space was Five Points — the beloved Mediterranean restaurant opened in 1999 by Marc Meyer, Vicki Freeman, and Chris Paraskevaides. In 2014, the team reimagined the restaurant, giving it new life as Vic’s. Since then, Vic’s has become a neighborhood favorite in its own right, known for its warm hospitality, vibrant Italian flavors, and enduring connection to the spirit of Five Points.

Vic’s is part of The Bowery Group (Rosie’s, Shuka, Shukette, Cookshop), a group of restaurants recognized with accolades including James Beard nominations, New York Times “Top 10 New Restaurants of 2021,” and numerous features in leading publications. Across our group, we are committed to supporting small farms, highlighting seasonal produce, and bringing guests honest, respectfully produced cuisine at peak freshness.

If you’re excited about carrying forward a legacy of hospitality while bringing Italian cooking traditions to life for our guests, we’d love to welcome you to the Vic’s team.
