As we undergo a massive venue renewal, we are looking for an energetic, hospitality-driven Restaurant Manager to take ownership of our high-volume dining room and bistro operations.

In this role, you’ll focus on what makes great coastal dining tick, flawless floor execution, warm beachfront hospitality, efficient service pacing, and building an inspired team of front-of-house professionals. Working closely with our Executive Kitchen team and Venue Manager, you will bring high standards, operational structure, and an infectious floor presence to every service.

• You will partner directly with the Head Chef and Kitchen team to ensure smooth pass management, high food quality, rapid service pacing, and seamless communication.
• You will lead, coach, and develop front-of-house restaurant staff, driving service standards, product knowledge, and tableside hospitality in our newly renewed spaces.
• You will manage floor reservations, section allocations, service flow, labor efficiency, and daily dining room presentation.
• You will maintain gold-standard workplace health and safety, food safety standards, guest satisfaction, and QLD liquor compliance.

About you:

• Proven experience as a Restaurant Manager, Bistro Manager, or Assistant Restaurant Manager in a high-volume venue, coastal dining precinct, or busy hotel bistro.
• Deep passion for food, beverage, and guest hospitality with an obsession for high service standards and active floor presence.
• Exceptional leadership and coaching skills with a proven track record of building, training, and retaining high-performing floor teams.
• Cool under pressure with sharp problem-solving skills during peak weekend trade and holiday rushes.
