RESPONSIBILITIES
As our General Manager - Catering & Events, you'll be at the helm of all things restaurant operations. These are the results you'll be hired to accomplish:
» ① Hire & Develop a High-Performing Catering Team
Hand-pick your A-players, coach & develop your B-players, and encourage the C-players... to work somewhere else.
» ② Uncompromising Event Quality Control
You'll lead the charge to ensure - with your own eyes and ears! - that our high standards are met, event after event - definitely when you're there, and especially when you're not.
» ③ Run Top-Notch Catering & Event Operations
You'll ensure catering operations run smooth like *butta* - from packing to setup to service to breakdown, and everywhere in between.
» ④ Drive Catering Profitability
Maximize yours P's and minimize your L's, bb! You'll be responsible for (and damn good at!) controlling catering costs, without ever (we mean ever-ever!) sacrificing quality.
» ⑤ Create Smart Opportunities for Brand Exposure
Show us off! Plan & execute public events that turn heads, build buzz, and drive real business.
*As a disclaimer*: This is a dynamic position, in a rapidly growing company, in an always-changing industry. That means that this position and its responsibilities will continue to evolve. So, if you're change-adverse, this job ain't it.
That being said - if you're good with change, and are willing to try new things - you'll love this job, and it'll love you right back.
PAY
The total compensation for this position will be between $80000 - $90000 per year. Base salary depends on relevant experience.
WORK SCHEDULE
This position is full-time, with a semi-set schedule designed around the demands of our catered events. Our Catering Manager will be on-site for the most significant, most complex, highest-revenue events - and expected to float between multiple events in a single day when needed. While the weekly schedule may vary, days off are typically back-to-back. Our Catering Manager will work 5 days, and typically 45-50 hours per week.
WILL YOU FIT IN HERE?
Our team has been built - brick by brick - on shared core values. And no, they're not just bullsh*t words slapped on a wall - they're who we are at our core - and they're non-negotiables for working here. You'll feel super *comfy* and right at home if these words describe you:
» You Come With
Batteries Included
You're a high-energy self-starter who jumps into action, and doesn't need hand-holding to get things done.
» You're Scrappy
You're a resourceful problem-solver who makes things happen; if there's no door, you get in through a window.
» You Take Your Work Seriously
You take pride in your work, big and small, and you have a natural reflex to do things the *right* way.
» But, You Don't Take Yourself Too Seriously
You're a positive team player who owns up to your mistakes, is open to feedback, and is humble about your wins. And if these words *don't* describe you? You'll be decidedly *uncomfy* here. So, fair warning - If you're a cranky a** problem-bringer who's cool being super-mid at your job and needs constant hand holding... may we suggest... working literally anywhere else?
