Job description

Are you a General Manager we are looking for?

Oozing energy, true hospitality spirit with experience and pride, diva at times, but above all spreading joy in the way you treat people? Then, read on, we want you!

Comptoir Libanais Chelsea sits proudly on the Fulham Road, surrounded by boutiques, galleries and a well-heeled local crowd. It's a 90+ cover site including terrace seating and is one of the brand's most recognisable and high-profile locations. We're open all day - breakfast through to dinner - and known for regulars who drop in for a quick mezze, a coffee catch-up or to host friends and family.

The team here need to deliver with warmth, personality and pace, and we're looking for a GM who thrives in that energy, can lead from the front, and brings a sense of pride and ownership to the guest experience.

As a General Manager, we can offer you:

  • Competitive quarterly bonus package- up to 25% of your annual salary
  • Rewards and benefits portal that offers access to great discounts

The must haves that you bring to the table:

  • True front-of-house floor leader - naturally confident, warm and engaging with guests and team, always present and touching tables.
  • Experience running a premium casual dining restaurant, ideally in a high-profile or central London location.
  • Loves the rhythm of all-day dining and knows how to build that "local favourite" culture - breakfast regulars, lunch buzz, dinner energy.
  • Commercially smart - someone who can bring flair and personality while still driving covers, margin, and spend per head.

The nice to haves we look for:

  • Strong brand ambassador - understands how to represent a well-known name with pride and protect the guest experience.
  • Has worked with Middle Eastern, Mediterranean or sharing concepts before.
  • Has come through a reputable training ground - ideally from branded premium casual dining.
