Job Details

We’re excited to welcome a new General Manager to our team at Le Coucou—a restaurant collaboration between acclaimed Chef Daniel Rose and our very own visionary leader Stephen Starr, built on passion, precision, and the belief that hospitality is both an art and a craft.

Since its debut, Le Coucou has become one of New York City's most iconic dining destinations, honored with the James Beard Award for Best New Restaurant and earning Michelin Stars every year since 2019. These accolades reflect not only a consistent standard of excellence but a deep commitment to thoughtful hospitality and refined culinary artistry. 

Offering a gracious, modern nod to fine European gastronomy, surrounded by elegant whitewashed brick walls, flickering candlelight, and crisp linens, the ambiance provides a fitting canvas for Chef Rose’s vivid and charming reinterpretation of classical French cuisine. His cooking elegantly shrinks the intercontinental divide between Paris and New York, reaffirming that the soul of French fine dining can flourish in any time zone.

This position offers a comprehensive package including:

  • A Base Salary Range of $120,000 - $145,000
  • Quarterly Bonus Program (up to 20% potential)
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Benefits Coverage
  • Paid Vacation and Sick Time
  • Referral Bonus Programs
  • Commuter Benefits Program
  • Dining Discounts at over 25 Affiliated STARR Restaurants
    - and more!

Desired Qualifications:

  • A minimum of 6 years of progressive management experience in well-rated restaurants; Michelin Star experience desired
  • A positive and self-motivated disposition with a commitment to excellence and team success
  • Experience hiring, training, and mentoring a diverse team of salaried managers and hourly staff
  • Strong financial acumen with the proven ability to oversee cost control, labor, management, and bottom-line profitability
Le Coucou is an equal opportunity employer. All applicants will be considered for employment without attention to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran, or disability status.
