About Us

We’re a chef-driven, upscale casual restaurant group known for seasonal menus, scratch kitchens, and hospitality that actually means something. Our teams are tight, creative, and serious about doing things the right way — from guest experience to training to beverage programs. If you’re passionate about hospitality and leadership, you’ll fit right in.

The Role

We’re hiring a FOH Manager for our Chadds Ford, PA location. You’ll run service, develop the team, and help drive execution and innovation alongside the General Manager. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role with direct impact on the guest experience, the culture, and the numbers.

What You’ll Do

• Lead daily front-of-house operations and floor execution for lunch + dinner service
• Train, coach, and inspire a team of 15-25 servers, bartenders, and hosts in a high-volume environment
• Own scheduling, labor costs, and guest recovery — know your service standards and P&L drivers
• Contribute to beverage program development, specials, and seasonal promotions
• Uphold exceptional standards for cleanliness, service, and hospitality
• Jump in wherever needed — we’re all hands on deck during service

What You Bring

• 2+ years as a FOH Manager or 3+ years as a strong Supervisor/AGM in full-service, high-volume restaurants
• Poise under pressure, strong communication skills, and ability to lead by example
• Working knowledge of POS systems, scheduling, inventory, and labor management
• RAMP/ServSafe Alcohol certification preferred; passion for hospitality required
• Nights, weekends, and holidays — it’s restaurants, but we protect work-life balance where we can

What We Offer

• Salary: $55,000–$65,000 based on experience
• Benefits: Health, dental, vision, PTO, and meal perks
• Growth: Real advancement potential — we promote from within and our FOH Managers move up to GM roles
• Culture: Supportive leadership, creative freedom on service initiatives, and a team that has your back
