Lounge Operation Manager – Bristol.

Our Lounge Operations Managers play a pivotal role in the success of our business. Working alongside an Operations Chef you will manage an area of c.8-10 sites maximum (a nod to our unique determination to drive amazing attention to detail) remaining close to our teams and our customers every day.

What makes a Lounge is the people that work there and therefore your team will be your absolute number 1 priority, spotting amazing talent; having aces in the right places, celebrating success; creating a real buzz and a sense of belonging for our team, plus developing great managers and leaders through training, coaching and mentoring.

Ideally, you will probably have experience already as a Senior General Manager/Operations Manager or Area Manager with experience in bars or restaurants, or cafes/coffee shops already with fresh food and wet-led experience.

We're about unrelenting standards, we absolutely love people who never settle and our ultimate goal is that every customer leaves happy.

Who Do We Look For?

You Believe. In yourself and your leadership, in your team, in bringing people together and in our cause. You believe that delivering a great experience, making sure our customers leave happy and our teams loving what they do 14 shifts a week is achievable day in-day out.
You're honest. And have the strength of character to own up to what's not going right and tell it like it really is.
Care for your team. You genuinely care and are interested about the people that work for you and make it show. You know how to keep your team motivated and engaged and how to get the best out of them flexing your leadership style accordingly. For those wanting to progress you can help and support them grow and reach their aspirations.
Command the detail. You're all over the stocks, rotas, labour, H&S, lightbulbs, the nooks and crannies of the sites - delivering uncompromising standards both front and back of house and knowing what part everyone plays. Ultimately you get it done.
Never settle. For second best that is. You obsess about learning from yesterday and getting better, in each site, every single day from every opportunity and helping your team to do the same. We're not a 24/7 business, but we do expect hard work and commitment.
Do it your way. You lead your team and your businesses through your own unique style and personality, making it your own. You don't look for robots but recruit and develop people that bring their true selves to work.
