ASSISTANT GENERAL MANAGER – NEW OPENING – WIMBLEDON

SALARY: £52,000 - £55,000

LOCATION: SOTUH WEST LONDON

THE ROLE

• We are looking for a Assistant General Manager to join an exciting new bar and restaurant concept in Wimbledon.
  
  A neighbourhood-focused business with a real sense of community, great food, brilliant drinks and warm, personable hospitality at the heart of everything they do.
• This is a business that wants to become a firm favourite with the locals.
  
  Somewhere guests feel genuinely looked after, the team knows their regulars and the atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming and full of energy.
• We need a strong, hands-on AGM who absolutely loves the floor.
  
  Someone who is all about the detail, touching tables, building relationships with guests and ensuring that every service runs like a well-oiled machine.
• You'll be supporting the General Manager in leading a team of around 60, developing a strong management structure, driving standards and creating a positive, engaging culture where people genuinely enjoy coming to work.

THE PERSON

• We are looking for someone from a quality restaurant or bar and restaurant background, who understands what great hospitality looks and feels like.
• Someone who is naturally warm, engaging, organised and confident running a busy operation.
• You'll need to be a real people person, someone who can develop and motivate a sizeable team, lead from the front and maintain consistently high standards without losing that lovely, informal neighbourhood feel.
• Commercial awareness is important, and you'll be comfortable with labour, costs and the wider financial responsibilities of the business, but ultimately this role is about the people, the service and getting those finer details right.
• Ideally, you'll live in Wimbledon or the surrounding areas, with a genuine understanding of the local market and the type of hospitality that works within a community-led business.
• A great opportunity to join a new concept from the beginning, work alongside a passionate team and help establish a brilliant neighbourhood restaurant and bar.
