Job description

An opportunity for an experienced and approachable leader with a genuine love of hospitality and love of beautiful, ingredient-led food. Granger & Co. is looking for a Manager to join our restaurant family.

ABOUT US

Since we opened our doors in London in 2011, Granger & Co. has brought the relaxed, sunny Australian way of dining to the city. Our restaurants reflect the spirit that Bill Granger made known around the world: easy-going, generous excellence.

Our food makes people feel good. It is full of flavour, goodness and vitality. We thoughtfully source the best possible ingredients with a sunny, colourful lightness, and the emotional comfort of food is as important to us as how it looks and tastes. We celebrate seasonality, champion local growers and suppliers and prioritise ingredients grown with care for the world.

As a family-owned restaurant group that is constantly evolving, we value all employees as respected individuals and foster diversity and inclusion, with everyone given a chance to share their voice and ideas. People stay with us and grow with us, many for over a decade.

THE ROLE

This is a full-time position with a mix of daytime, evening and weekend shifts.

You will run the daily operation with pace and attention to detail, inspire the team through seasonal menu changes and teach with generosity, helping to build skills and confidence.

You will have support and training in administrative tasks from our hands-on operations team.

ABOUT YOU

You love hospitality, from the joy of sharing great food and drink to creating memorable experiences for guests. You take pride in leading a team that delivers excellence with care, warmth, and professionalism. Calm under pressure, organised and solutions-focused, you thrive in a fast-paced environment where every detail matters.

You understand what makes service exceptional and know how to bring together the front and back of house to ensure the restaurant runs seamlessly.

Above all, you care about guest satisfaction, teamwork, and creating an environment where everyone feels welcome.

WHAT WE OFFER

• A real work-life balance in a people-first business with teams who love what they do.
• An additional day of holiday for every year of service after two years.
• Access to wellbeing support and private GP services through Hospitality Rewards.
• Freshly made staff meals every shift.
• 50% off when you dine in our restaurants (for up to four people).
• Cycle to work scheme.
• Enhanced maternity pay (after 40 weeks of service).
• Ongoing learning opportunities and visits to the farms and producers we work with.

We believe great food and hospitality bring people together. Our kitchens and restaurants are places where every team member is heard, supported, respected and encouraged to grow. We are proud of our inclusive culture and the positive energy it brings to our restaurants.

If you are excited by the idea of cooking seasonal, ingredient-led food with a team who cares about flavour and hospitality, we would love to hear from you.
