General Manager – Premium Restaurant

Location: London

Salary: Up to £90,000

An opportunity to lead one of London's most ambitious hospitality businesses.

This is not a role for someone looking to simply maintain standards.

The business is at a pivotal stage of its journey, with significant investment behind it, a strong leadership team in place and a platform ready for growth.

The foundations have been built; the product is receiving excellent feedback and there is now an opportunity for a commercially minded General Manager to take ownership and drive the next chapter.

Reporting into the COO, this role offers a high level of autonomy and would suit someone who enjoys operating with freedom, accountability and the ability to make decisions that genuinely impact the business.

The role:

• Lead a large team across restaurant, bar and guest experience
• Take full ownership of operational performance, profitability and commercial growth
• Drive covers, revenue and guest engagement across the business
• Work closely with the senior leadership team to shape strategy and performance
• Develop and inspire a well-established management team
• Act as the face of the business, building relationships with guests, partners and key stakeholder
• Identify opportunities to improve performance, systems and processes
• Take ownership of reporting, forecasting and financial performance

The person:

• An experienced General Manager from a premium restaurant, hospitality or lifestyle-led environment
• Commercially astute with a strong understanding of P&L management
• Confident leading large teams and creating a culture of accountability
• Entrepreneurial in approach and comfortable operating with autonomy
• A natural leader who enjoys building relationships and developing people
• Guest-focused whilst never losing sight of the numbers
• Someone excited by the challenge of growing a business rather than simply maintaining on
