Job description

Overview

ōmí lounge isn’t just another bar. We’re a high-end, chic destination in the heart of London’s West End where music, food, and culture collide. We’re looking for a standout General Manager who can take the reins and push ōmí into its next chapter of growth.

This isn’t a “keep the lights on” role. We want someone who lives and breathes the West End nightlife scene, understands how to grow revenue in a competitive market, and comes with real relationships and a built-up client list. You’ll be the face of ōmí, curating the experience, driving numbers, and setting the tone for a team that thrives on energy, creativity, and excellence.

What You’ll Do

• Be the heartbeat of ōmí lounge: leading the team, shaping culture, and setting the standard for service.
• Own the numbers: grow revenue streams, manage budgets, and maximize profitability.
• Bring your network: leverage your West End contacts and client base to keep the lounge buzzing with the right crowd.
• Run the floor like an orchestra: from reservations to VIP hosting, you’ll make sure every night feels effortless and unforgettable.
• Keep us sharp: ensure operations, compliance, and licensing are never in question.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven GM (or senior leadership) experience in the West End — not just “hospitality,” but specifically high-end lounges, restaurants, or nightlife.
• A track record of growing revenue, hitting ambitious targets, and building repeat business.
• A client list and industry relationships you can activate from day one.
• Natural leader: inspires, motivates, and keeps the team firing on all cylinders.
• Hungry, creative, and relentless about elevating guest experience.

Why Join ōmí Lounge?

• £60k base salary plus opportunity for performance-based bonus structure.
• A chance to shape and scale one of the West End’s most exciting venues.
• Be part of a brand that values bold ideas, creativity, and innovation—not just status quo management.
• Career growth opportunities as ōmí expands.
• A front-row seat (and role) in London’s nightlife culture.

If you’re the GM who knows how to make a venue thrive—not just survive—and you’ve got the West End credibility and network to back it up, we want to hear from you.

Disclaimer: ōmí is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
