General Manager | Upscale Restaurant & Social Dining Concept

We are looking for an experienced General Manager to lead a growing, high-energy restaurant concept in Atlanta.

This is not a position for someone looking to simply manage shifts. We are looking for a strong operator and hospitality leader who understands how to build a team, drive revenue, control costs, create an exceptional guest experience, and take ownership of the overall performance of the restaurant.

Our concept combines upscale dining, cocktails, music, events, and a lively social atmosphere. The ideal candidate understands how to maintain elevated service standards while operating in a fast-paced, high-volume environment.

• Overall day-to-day restaurant operations and performance

• Leadership and development of the FOH management and service teams

• Recruiting, training, coaching, and retaining top hospitality talent

• Guest experience and consistent execution of service standards

• Sales growth, reservations, table utilization, average check, and repeat business

• Labor management, scheduling, productivity, and payroll control

• Daily and weekly review of sales, labor, costs, and operating results

• Understanding and managing restaurant P&L performance

• Collaboration with the Executive Chef and Bar leadership

• Large parties, VIP experiences, private events, and special programming

• Inventory controls, purchasing procedures, comps, voids, and controllable expenses

• Maintaining strong communication and accountability across all departments

• Ensuring compliance with health, alcohol, safety, and operational standards

• Providing ownership with clear reporting on performance, challenges, and opportunities

You are a visible, hands-on leader who prefers being on the floor during service rather than managing from an office.

You understand both hospitality and the business behind hospitality. You can read the room, motivate a team, recover an unhappy guest, analyze labor and sales, identify operational problems, and make decisions quickly.

Ideal candidates will have:

• 3–5+ years of restaurant management experience

• Previous GM or strong AGM experience

• Experience in upscale, high-volume restaurants

• Strong knowledge of restaurant financials, P&L, labor, and cost controls

• Proven experience building and developing FOH teams

• Strong understanding of reservations and maximizing restaurant capacity

• Excellent leadership, communication, and organizational skills

• Experience with nightlife, entertainment, events, or high-energy concepts is a major plus

• Availability to work evenings, weekends, holidays, and peak business periods

We are building more than a restaurant; we are building a hospitality brand with opportunities for growth.

We want someone who can become an important part of that growth and who approaches the business with an ownership mentality.

If you are competitive, accountable, hospitality-driven, financially aware, and excited by the challenge of growing a restaurant, we want to meet you.
