This bar-led hospitality concept is a celebration of duality—a core aspect of femininity—where strength meets softness, mystery balances clarity, and elegance remains approachable. Rooted in warm hospitality and creative design, it breaks from the traditionally masculine cocktail bar scene to foster personal connection, artistic expression, and inclusivity. A dramatic atmosphere and a carefully curated cocktail program—featuring female winemakers, brewers, and suppliers—highlight the powerful influence of women in the industry. Every detail is intentional, telling a story of presence and purpose without leaning into exclusivity or theme, creating a space that welcomes all.

As General Manager, you’re not just running a room—you’re setting the tone, managing the business, and bringing the brand to life every night. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who moves fluidly between service and strategy. You’ll oversee the guest experience, lead the front-of-house team, manage bar operations, and work closely with the Senior General Manager to gain fluency in the financial side of the business. You’ll also partner with a lead host who manages the guest list and pacing, but you’ll play an active role in shaping the feel of the space—ensuring the cocktail lounge continues to attract a vibrant, thoughtful, and creatively minded crowd aligned with its spirit.

Team Management & Development

• Guide pre-shift meetings and provide ongoing performance coaching grounded in accountability and care.
• Foster a culture of hospitality, professionalism, and pride.

Brand Stewardship & Programming
