Overview

We are seeking a hospitality-minded Service Manager to lead front-of-house operations in a fine dining Italian restaurant. This is a hands-on leadership role for a polished professional who understands high-level service, leads by example, and supports both guests and staff on the floor. Italian cuisine and wine knowledge are a plus, but not required—training will be provided.

  • Ensure consistent execution of fine dining service standards
  • Prioritize tasks to support an exceptional guest experience
  • Mentor and guide front-of-house staff
  • Step into any FOH role as needed (service, bar, host stand)
  • Support scheduling, inventory (supplies, liquor, wine), and labor management
  • Read and understand a P&L
  • 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)
  • Paid vacation : 1 week after year one, 2 weeks after year two, 3 weeks after year five
  • Bonus program under consideration, tied to restaurant profitability
