Assistant Manager Wanted – Covent Garden’s Star Venue!
Package: up to 40k inclusive of tronc on an hourly basis
We’ve got a rare opening in our flagship Covent Garden
restaurant right across from the Royal Opera House. By day, it’s a vibrant
lunch spot; by night, it’s alive with atmosphere.
We’re part of a Mediterranean-inspired brand serving up fresh pizza, pasta, and grill dishes with a side of sunshine. With over 30 sites already and huge expansion plans for 2026, this is the perfect time to join our journey. We’re all about casual excellence, outstanding service in a relaxed, friendly environment where you can truly be yourself.
We’re searching for an Assistant Manager who’s not just
passionate about hospitality, but also a master of organisation, the kind of
person who keeps the back office running like clockwork and dives head-first
into service to wow our guests.
You’ll work closely with our brilliant General Manager,
getting hands on experience in every aspect of running the business, from
service flow and guest experience to the behind-the-scenes systems that make
everything tick.
Why you’ll love it here:
* Competitive package, service charge included, and extra
hours paid (no “free overtime” nonsense here).
* Crystal-clear communication throughout your hiring journey –
no surprises, no guesswork.
* Career development that’s actually real... we’ll train,
mentor, and open doors for you.
* Supportive senior team who are present and approachable,
with the perfect balance between guidance and your own decision-making power.
* A company that values quality over discounts – our marketing
team works with you to grow your guest base without undercutting what we do
best.
What we’re looking for:
* A natural people-person who makes guests feel instantly
welcome.
* A leader who motivates the team and brings out their best.
* At least one year in a management role within a busy,
quality-driven restaurant (ideally branded).
* A detail-driven organiser who thrives on systems, schedules,
and smooth back-office operations.
* Bags of energy, positivity, and initiative
Perks you’ll enjoy:
* Generous service charge.
* Free meals on shift.
* Staff discounts across the group.
* Regular incentives and recognition.
* Early wage access via Wagestream – pay yourself as you earn.
If you’re the kind of Assistant Manager who loves the buzz
of service and gets a secret thrill from a perfectly balanced rota, organised
stockroom, and seamless paperwork… we want you on our team.
