Assistant General Manager – Job Description

We’re looking for a professional, aspirational Assistant General Manager to join our Senior Management team. This is a hands-on role with most of your time spent on the floor training and supporting the Front of House team.

The role is full time.

About us…

The Perch is a beautifully restored 17th-century restaurant and public house tucked beside the Thames, only a stone’s throw away from the city centre. With our rich history, idyllic beer garden and permanent marquee for weddings and events, we are a vibrant and unique place to work.

We’re an independent business with a strong focus on fresh, seasonal and locally sourced food. We are proud to welcome guests from near and far to deliver what we like to call casual excellence; high-quality dishes, friendly and attentive service, in a picturesque environment.

About the role…

Key responsibilities:

·         Support, develop and motivate the Front of House team.

·         Train new members of staff, ensuring our exacting standards are understood and upheld at all times.

·         Work closely with our Events Manager, General Manager, and kitchen team to keep everything running smoothly.

·         Run pre-shift briefings to set the tone, providing the team with everything they need to succeed.

·         Provide cover for GM’s absence (holidays etc.).

·         Manage the rota, knowing when to adjust based on business needs.

·         Manage restaurant bookings (online, phone, email) to ensure we are maximising our table plan.

·         Deliver exemplary, while still friendly and relaxed, guest service.

·         Lead by example and ensure our service style stays sharp, friendly and consistent.

·         Organise the restaurant’s larger bookings.

About you…

The ideal candidate is someone who shares our commitment to quality, hospitality, and who enjoys working in fast-paced customer-facing role.

Essential:

·         At least 1 year experience in a busy, fresh food environment.

·         Previous experience with leadership/management responsibilities.

·         Confident communicator who enjoys engaging with both restaurant guests and collegues.

·         Calm under pressure with a can-do attitude.

·         Keen interest in hospitality and a genuine love for good food and drink.

·         Efficient with a keen eye for detail.

What we offer…

·         A competitive package to £52k per annum inclusive of TRONC and performance bonus.

·         28 days annual leave

·         30% off food and drink at any of our three Oxford restaurants

·         On-site parking

If you think you’d be the right fit, we’d love to hear from you.

To apply, send your CV and a short cover letter to jasonspallini@fullcity.co.uk.
