Maple & Ash Miami - Night Life Manager

Maple Hospitality Group builds restaurants that set the standard in their cities: Maple & Ash in Chicago, Scottsdale, Miami, and Boston, with New York opening next; Monarch and Kessaku in Dallas; Marisella in Santa Barbara. Chef Danny Grant leads the kitchens. The house line is simple. We take risks, because the greater the risk, the more delicious the reward.

Maple & Ash Miami

Three venues in one building at Miami World center. Maple & Ash, the wood-fired flagship that brings the group's signature approach to steak, seafood, and hospitality to downtown Miami. Eight Bar, the neighborhood bistro and raw bar on the ground floor. And The Studio, hidden behind the kitchen. A night can start at the flagship and end upstairs without leaving the building.

The Studio

A sophisticated speakeasy and private dining space hidden at Maple & Ash Miami. The Studio channels the spirit of Miami's golden era: Art Deco lines, disco energy, lush greens and pinks, plush velvet, fiber-optic light, and curving archways around the VIP tables. Two rooms, The Lounge and The Record Room, behind a private entrance. It is where food, art, music, and movement collide. DJs, cocktails named after songs, caviar, bottle service, and the only kitchen behind a lounge in Miami. Private, but never quiet. For those who stay past last call.

The Studio relaunches this winter with new programming, a new late-night menu, and a new entrance, and it sits on Haute Living's 2026 list of Miami's best speakeasies. The brief: impossible to overlook, without losing the intrigue of being hidden.

The Role

The Nightlife Manager owns The Studio after dark: the door, the room, the programming, and the numbers. You decide who plays, you know who is coming before they arrive, and you bring the city with you. On off nights you are out in it: concierges, residences, hotels, and the tastemakers who set Miami's calendar. The Studio is a lounge, not a nightclub, and the manager is the difference.

What You Will Do

• Run The Studio Thursday through Saturday: the door, the floor, the tables, the close.
• Own the programming. DJs, live performances, Guest Shifts, promoters, and brand partners, booked, promoted, and measured against the night's revenue.
• Bring a book and grow it. The tastemakers, creatives, and local insiders who text you for a table on a Friday come in because of you.
• Work the city on off nights: concierges, residential buildings, hotels, and Miami lifestyle brands, alongside our Event Sales Manager.
• Turn dinner guests into Studio guests, with the Maple & Ash host and service teams.
• Host the private side: buyouts, VIP parties, and events for up to 100 guests, with our events team.
• Hire, train, and lead the Studio team, including the door.
• Hold the standard: the music, the light, the pacing, and the guest mix. Messy elegance is the brief.
• Sit on the Maple & Ash management team: weekly manager meeting, scheduling, and the Studio P&L.

What You Bring

• Three or more years managing a high-end lounge or comparable venue in Miami, with staff and P&L responsibility.
• A Miami book: concierges, residents, regulars, and the people who book tables.
• You know the rooms that turn at 11, and the people who run them.
• Experience hiring DJs and promoters and holding them to numbers.
• SevenRooms and POS fluency.
• Nights and weekends.
