  • Appraise staff performance and provide feedback to improve productivity.
  • Ensure compliance with sanitation and safety regulations.
  • Manage the restaurant’s good image and suggest ways to improve it.
  • Control operational costs and identify measures to cut waste.
  • Promote the brand in the local community through word-of-mouth and restaurant events.
  • Recommend ways to reach a broader audience (e.g. discounts and social media ads).
  • Train new and current employees on proper customer service practices.
  • Implement policies and protocols that will maintain future restaurant operations.

Requirements:

  • Proven work experience as a Restaurant Manager Assistant, Hospitality Manager, or similar role.
  • Proven customer service experience as an assistant manager.
  • Food and beverage (F&B) knowledge, with the ability to remember and recall ingredients and dishes to inform customers and waitstaff.
  • Familiarities with restaurant management software, like OpenTable and POS.
  • Strong leadership, motivation, and people skills.
  • Some financial management skills.
  • A degree in Business Administration; hospitality management or culinary schooling is a plus.
