This particular location is one of several unique, non corporate, restaurants owned by the same family. A solid track record of impeccable service, facility, food and atmosphere remains the objective and to meet this objective once again, will require a motivated, capable, leader to oversee operations from front to back. A commitment to excellence requires putting the right resources in the right places and working as a team towards a well defined goal. That’s where you come in!
In short, to hit the next level, this restaurant needs a leader. The right candidate is able to walk the line between being a “doer” and a “delegator.” They are a good evaluator of talent in positions throughout the restaurant and can assemble a team that is reliable, consistent, and has each other’s backs. The right candidate understands how important cooperation between the Front of House and Back of House and does not pit different departments (or individual staff) against each other. The right candidate is always actively looking for ways to drive more business to the restaurant, give our customers an experience that is well better than expected, and have them return. If that candidate is you, your first task will be to set the business up for success, instill in your staff the culture that you need to have them succeed as a team, and then begin to grow the business.
Additionally, the right candidate should also have:
Strong organizational skills
Strong communication skills
Ability to read and understand P&L statements, and extrapolate conclusions from them

Experience with hiring, training, and firing
Ability to work with and balance sales projections with labor
Ability to bid and coordinate caterings of various sizes
Experience with basic office accounting practices
Expectation of getting the job done which will require patience and flexibility in schedule
The right candidate has extensive experience in the food and beverage industry, with a minimum of one year as a Front of House manager in a casual restaurant. Experience with volume cooking/kitchen prep is a major plus. Any proficiency with Spanish is also a plus.
This is NOT a corporate job. You are not bound by a rigid and often dull framework that is not adaptable to the customers that we serve and the area that we live in. Instead, this General Manager makes solid decisions that serve to protect and grow the business. Restaurants often change as they grow, and your role is to ensure that this one grows in a manner that is consistent with the vision of our ownership group.
As the restaurant grows, our management group favors a salary + bonus approach. There is really no cap on what you can make, if you are willing to put in the work to get the results. Our GMs should be invested in their own success and betting on themselves. “A rising tide lifts all ships”.
Relocation costs will be reimbursed for the right candidate and are negotiable. If you live in an inland city, this might be the perfect time opportunity to move to the coast. The rest of the world seems to be moving to Brunswick County, so why not you?
To apply, please send a current C.V. along with three references. References will be screened prior to any interviews being scheduled.
