Lead a modern Asian restaurant & bar, driving team culture, service standards & operations. Growth into a Venue Manager position

We’re on the hunt for a hands-on, experienced Restaurant Manager to take the reins at a modern, high-energy Asian restaurant and bar. This role is perfect for someone who thrives on building strong team culture, improving systems, and delivering an exceptional guest experience.

You’ll oversee all aspects of venue operations, including the front and back of house, with potential for growth into a multi-site General Manager role across our wider group, based in a busy hospitality precinct.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Full responsibility for day-to-day venue operations
• Lead by example on shift, while mentoring and training the FOH team and supporting BOH coordination
• Build a tight, collaborative team culture and elevate service standards
• Handle forecasting, budgeting, rostering, costing, inventory, and bar optimisations
• Manage stock control, maintenance, sales reporting, and training schedules
• Oversee recruitment, performance reviews, and career development alongside senior leadership
• Coordinate with the kitchen team (some of whom speak limited English) respectfully and constructively
• Support marketing efforts and promotions to drive new and repeat customers

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong leadership and hospitality management experience (ideally in venues with up to 20 staff)
• Confidence coaching both FOH and BOH teams
• Skilled in cost control, reporting, and systems with a high attention to detail
• Willingness to lead from the floor and not just manage from the sidelines
• Open to learning about Chinese cuisine and cocktails (no prior experience required)
• Proactive, collaborative and growth-minded

What’s On Offer:

• $32–$35/hr + tips + performance-based bonus (up to $10k per year)
• Free staff meals on shift
• 50% staff discount across 10 venues 
• Annual parking contribution
• Visa support available after 3 months (for the right candidate)
• Growth opportunities into multi-site GM roles as we expand

This is a rare opportunity to step into a leadership role with real influence, creativity, and career growth potential. If you’re ready to work with a team that values respect, standards, and collaboration. If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.
