This is a hands-on role for someone self-motivated, detail-oriented, and driven to lead by example, with experience managing busy, service-driven environments.

  • Maintain the Atmosphere: Ensure the space is clean, welcoming, and aligned with Cecilia’s standards.
  • Support the General Manager: Assist with scheduling, training, inventory, and daily operations to keep the restaurant running efficiently.

What We’re Looking For:
  • Experienced Leader: At least 3 years of restaurant management experience, preferably in high-volume or full-service environments.
  • Team-Oriented & Positive: A natural leader who motivates by example and brings energy to every shift.
  • Hospitality-Driven: Passionate about creating memorable experiences and making guests feel at home.
  • Strong Communicator: Able to listen, speak clearly, and stay solution-focused under pressure.
  • Organized & Calm Under Pressure: Manage multiple priorities while keeping service smooth and the environment upbeat.
  • Reliable & Flexible: Full-time, salaried positions are approx. 50 hours/week; hourly management positions are 40 hours/week. Availability is needed for nights, weekends, and holidays.
 
Why You’ll Love Working With Us:
  • Growth Opportunities: As a growing restaurant group, we prioritize developing our team and promoting from within.
