  • Take on additional responsibilities (e.g., bar operations) based on expertise

Qualifications

  • 2–5 years of management experience in a comparable restaurant
  • Strong understanding of service fundamentals
  • General wine knowledge required; Italian wine experience a plus
  • Professional, punctual, and well-groomed
  • Calm, organized, and guest-focused under pressure
  • Benefits

  • Salary : $80,000
  • Schedule : 5 days / week, 9–10 hours per day; Days Off : Sunday & Monday
  • Health & dental insurance fully paid (eligible after 90 days)

  • Bonus program under consideration, tied to restaurant profitability
