Overview
Pearly Cow York is now on the lookout for a Restaurant Manager to lead our team from the front. Can you keep service flowing smoother than the River Ouse, balance a full restaurant like you’re strolling the city walls, and still notice when table five’s Sunday roast needs extra gravy? If your motto is “hospitality with heart and a bit of Yorkshire charm,” then you might just be the Restaurant Manager we’ve been waiting for. Pearly Cow is an independent collection of grill restaurants in York, Brighton and Margate and where we serve up the most indulgent cuts of meat and the freshest fish in gorgeous settings, where you’ll feel right at home.
Responsibilities
* Running the restaurant floor with confidence, personality, and Yorkshire pride
* Delivering seamless service from breakfast through to dinner, and running private events, ensuring every guest leaves happier than when they arrived
* Coaching and motivating your team so they shine brighter than the Minster at golden hour
* Working closely with the kitchen to champion local, seasonal produce and create memorable dining experiences
* Keeping an eagle eye on the details — from table settings to wine pairings — so the experience always feels special
* Handling the behind-the-scenes bits like rotas, stock, and compliance (because smooth service doesn’t happen by accident)
Qualifications
* Experience in restaurant or hospitality management
* A leader who inspires, trains, and brings out the best in their team
* Organised and calm under pressure, even during a fully booked Saturday night service
* Passionate about great food, drink, and creating experiences that showcase York’s warmth and heritage
* A detail-focused host who notices the little things that make a big difference
Benefits
* Work in a stylish, intimate restaurant that feels more like a home than a collection of restaurants.
* Be part of a small, close-knit team where your ideas matter.
* Competitive pay, and plenty of guest-powered stories.
* An extra holiday day for your birthday.
* No split shifts
* Team room with a pantry and a free meal on shift, plus a snack option
