The Opportunity

This is a role for someone who wants to do more than run shifts. As Restaurant Manager, you’ll be a visible leader on the floor, a trusted partner to the General Manager, and a key driver of the guest experience.

You’ll lead front-of-house operations, support and coach the team in real time, and help ensure every guest interaction reflects the restaurant’s service standards. This is an ideal opportunity for a hands-on hospitality leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment, loves developing people, and understands how strong service execution drives both guest loyalty and business performance.

Deliver consistently exceptional guest experiences aligned with brand standards Actively engage with guests throughout service, including VIPs and regulars Handle guest concerns and service recovery with professionalism and urgency Monitor service flow, pacing, table turns, and overall guest satisfaction Ensure smooth coordination between front-of-house and back-of-house teams

Operational & Financial Support

Execute opening, mid-shift, and closing procedures with consistency Support labour management, sales pacing, and shift-level cost controls Assist with inventory, ordering, cash handling, and end-of-day reporting Maintain a safe, organized, and professional operating environment

What You Bring

2–4+ years of leadership experience in a full-service, upscale casual, or boutique restaurant environment Proven ability to lead shifts and manage day-to-day restaurant operations Strong service instincts and a track record of delivering exceptional guest experiences Experience with guest recovery, team coaching, and floor leadership in busy service environments Familiarity with POS systems, scheduling tools, inventory processes, and basic reporting A calm, hands-on, solutions-oriented leadership style Flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and holidays

Why This Role

This is an opportunity to step into a highly visible leadership role where your impact is felt every day - on the floor, with the team, and in the overall guest experience.

You’ll join a respected hospitality organization with an established reputation, strong leadership infrastructure, and genuine opportunity for long-term growth. For someone who takes pride in service, team development, and operational excellence, it’s a chance to build a meaningful hospitality career in one of Vancouver’s fastest growing and most respected restaurant groups.
