Be a hands-on, lead-from-the-front GM who is present, engaged, and accountable

What We’re Looking For:

3+ years as a General Manager or high-level AGM ready to step up in a full-service, high-volume restaurant

Proven track record of leading teams, developing managers, and driving guest loyalty

Strong financial acumen – P&L management, labor controls, inventory, and cost management

Experience with bar operations and scratch kitchen / seasonal menu environments

Passion for hospitality and a desire to grow long-term with a private group – not a corporate chain

Stable work history and reliable transportation to Hellertown, PA

Health benefits, PTO, and growth opportunities

Work-life balance with a private group that values its managers – consistent days off
