We’re partnered on a confidential search for a General Manager to help launch and lead their venue for our client. This is a high-energy, hospitality-driven concept with a strong focus on atmosphere, repeat clientele, food & beverage quality, and guest experience.

- Strong General Manager experience within elevated, trendy, high-volume restaurant concepts.
- Background from modern hospitality groups or high-energy lifestyle-driven concepts.
- Deep understanding of hospitality, guest recognition, and relationship-building.
- Strong knowledge of food, wine, spirits, and cocktail culture.
- Someone naturally sociable who can connect with guests, staff, and VIP clientele alike.
- Experience overseeing events, buyouts, cocktail parties, and private dining.
- Demonstrated stability in previous roles is essential, with a preference for candidates who have maintained long-term tenure of 3–5 years with past employers.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Leading the launch of the venue alongside ownership and operations leadership.
- Running high-energy FOH operations and setting the tone for service standards.
- Building strong guest relationships and creating a regular clientele base.
- Leading and mentoring FOH management and hourly teams.
- Overseeing service execution for both nightly operations and corporate/private events.
- Managing cocktail-style receptions, seated dinners, and high-volume hospitality moments.
- Partnering closely with culinary and beverage leadership to ensure seamless execution.
- Creating a culture centered around hospitality, energy, and personality.
- Being highly visible in the operation and leading from the floor during service.
