POSITION INFO:

Luxury Hospitality Group | Cape Town

Join the Future of Modern Hospitality

We're not hiring order-takers — we're looking for someone who genuinely loves this industry.

We're one of Cape Town's most established luxury hospitality groups — a collection of award-winning restaurants, bars, five-star hotels and spas that has shaped the city's dining and lifestyle scene since 2002. From the Atlantic Seaboard to the Constantia winelands, our venues sit at some of the most iconic addresses in the Western Cape.

For us, modern luxury starts with people — the ones we employ and the ones we welcome through our doors. We're growing, and we want a Restaurant Manager who gets that.

The Role

You'll be at the heart of the guest experience — on the floor, reading the room, leading your team and making sure every service feels effortless, even when it isn't.

Some nights that means problem-solving on the fly. Others it means mentoring a junior team member through their first busy Saturday. Most of the time it means holding the standard — quietly, consistently, without being asked.

This isn't a back-office role. We need someone who's present, switched-on and genuinely invested in what happens between the first cover and the last.

Who You Are

• You've managed a restaurant floor and you're comfortable owning it
• You're calm when it's chaos and sharp when it's quiet
• Guests remember you — for the right reasons
• Your team trusts you and learns from you
• You know your numbers without losing the soul of what you do
• Detail is not something you're reminded about — it's just how you work
• You've come up through fine dining, luxury hospitality or high-quality premium environments

We're open to where you are in your career. What matters more is how you think, how you lead and what you care about.

What You'll Get Stuck Into

• Running a smooth, memorable service — every time, not just on good days
• Leading and developing your front-of-house team day to day
• Working closely with the kitchen to keep things seamless behind the scenes
• Handling guest moments — the brilliant ones and the tricky ones
• Keeping on top of scheduling, costs and the operational side of things
• Getting involved in menu briefings, seasonal changes and the wider life of the venue
• Building a floor culture where people are proud of what they do

What Good Looks Like

• Services that run like clockwork — even the ones that shouldn't
• Guests who ask for your venue by name and come back
• A team that grows under you and wants to stay
• Standards that hold regardless of who's watching

What's in It for You

• A salary that reflects your experience and what you bring
• Real room to grow within a portfolio that's still expanding
• The chance to work across some of Cape Town's most iconic venues
• A team that takes the work seriously — and knows how to have a good time doing it

This isn't just a management job.

It's the kind of role where the work matters, the people matter — and so do you.
