The Opportunity

An award-winning Blue Mountains restaurant with a loyal following and strong reputation for food and hospitality is looking for a confident floor leader to join the team.

The venue has built its reputation on bold, produce-driven food, a vibrant atmosphere and genuinely warm service. Most nights we're full with a mix of locals, travellers and weekend guests escaping the city.

We’re now looking for a Restaurant Manager — or an experienced Supervisor or Assistant Manager ready to step into their first management role — to help lead the floor and continue building the energy and culture of the venue.

This is a hands-on role for someone who loves service, enjoys mentoring a team and takes pride in creating memorable guest experiences.
