We're an organic wine estate near Franschhoek/Paarl with a restaurant built around Mediterranean food, our estate olive oil, and the wines we grow. We're looking for an experienced restaurant manager to run the floor and own the guest experience.
The role
You'll lead a small FOH team, manage 60–70 covers on peak days, and work closely with the kitchen. Day to day, you set and hold service standards, resolve guest issues before they land as reviews, and build the systems that keep the floor calm when it's full. You'll have real ownership of how the restaurant runs and room to shape it.
You
- Solid experience running a restaurant floor, ideally in a destination or fine-casual setting
- You train and hold standards as a matter of course, not on instruction
- Comfortable working alongside a kitchen; exposure to kitchen operations is an advantage
- A genuine interest in wine: you don't need to be a sommelier, but you should want to learn ours
Practical
Wednesday to Sunday. Simondium: ~15km from Paarl, 20km from Franschhoek. Own transport needed
Salary commensurate with experience. Send your CV to [email protected] with the subject "Restaurant Manager." Tell us in a line or two why we should hire you.
Pay: R18 000,00 - R28 000,00 per month
