Job description

Restaurant General Manager

Department: Restaurants

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Greenwich - Restaurant

Reporting To: Head Chef & Head of Event Operations


Description
Pasta Evangelists is looking for an utterly fabulous individual to manage our new Greenwich fresh pasta restaurant. We won’t just be cooking and serving our customers the freshest pasta in town (although that’s a big part of it!), but opening doors to one of the coolest locations in town.

Picture this: you’ll have your own chefs making fresh pasta in the window to entice the good people of Greenwich in. There’ll be the hippest Italian funk and jazz on stereo, the smell of ragù in the air, fresh pasta making classes in-house, drivers buzzing about on our beautiful terracotta Vespas, and much more. Oh, and did we mention that you’ll have your own complimentary wine machine to offer customers a glass of the good stuff when they come and visit our restaurant?

As General Manager, you’ll be responsible for creating something exceptional at Pasta Evangelists Greenwich. And, in turn, we’re looking for an exceptional candidate. We want to hear from candidates who ooze passion, are confident, charming & wear an easy smile with customers, and who want to be part of our exceptional new fresh pasta concept coming to Greenwich. If that sounds like you, we wanted to hear from you yesterday. So, as our Roman ancestors might have said, carpe diem. Show us your soul.

What you'll do at Pasta Evangelists:
  • Lead the charge in our exciting new Greenwich restaurant, offering an amazing customer experience to our guests from the moment we open our doors
  • You’ll be the smiling face of Pasta Evangelists Greenwich, a figure known in the local area for providing effortless customer service and the finest fresh pasta in town
  • You will create, lead and inspire a team of like-minded, passionate individuals, united by their faith in fresh, artisan pasta and determined to deliver an unforgettable experience
  • You’ll take the lead on creating magic in store, working with our Marketing team to bring limited edition events like in-store Italian lessons, wine evenings, pasta making classes for kids, etc.
  • You will create a work environment where team members thrive, grow and feel valued
  • You will be our kitchen guardian, ensuring that our sites are fully compliant with the high standards we set for safety and quality
  • You will immerse yourself in the intricacies of reports and regulations, guiding us towards success while ensuring unwavering adherence to compliance with Food and Health & Safety standards
  • You will craft plans to meet business KPIs, achieving commercial objectives and managing COGS smartly
  • Your goal? Delighting customers and driving sales through continuous improvement and innovation

Who you are:
  • You are able to speak the language of motivation fluently, inspiring and engaging people at all levels
  • You are well-presented and highly personable, and feel comfortable hosting, engaging with & chatting with customers on a near-constant basis
  • You have previous experience in nurturing and developing diverse teams
  • You have experience in turning raw talent into seasoned pros who love what they do
  • You are focused on revenue generation. You understand profit margins and know how to optimise them to keep our business thriving
  • You possess a strong commercial acumen, adept at comprehending P&L dynamics. You have experience utilising data-driven insights to inform strategic decisions that ensure the business remains on a steady course
  • You're no stranger to human resources. From recruitment to disciplinary processes, you handle it all with empathy and finesse
What we are looking for in an ideal candidate:
  • Your love for Italian cuisine is contagious. Share your passion with the team and our guests.
  • You are always hungry to learn and grow, both personally and as a leader. You thrive on new challenges and opportunities.
  • You are a natural talent-spotter. You will identify potential within the team and nurture it, driving career development and success.
  • You believe in recognizing and celebrating achievements and having fun whilst doing it!
  • You are experienced in the hospitality industry, with a proven track record of excellence. You know what it takes to deliver top-tier experiences.
  • Numbers are your friends. You have experience analysing data to inform decisions and meet the key performance indicators with precision.
  • You lead from the front, empowering and motivating others to excel. Set high standards and watch the team rise to the occasion.
  • … If you dream in pasta shapes, you're in the right place.

What we can offer:
  • Competitive salary to attract best talent
  • Join a dynamic, fast-moving & diverse team
  • Discount at our counter and restaurant in Harrods
  • Regular team socials and pasta tastings
