53rd Floor Sky Lounge, Wardian, Canary Wharf E14 Full-time | Tips & Service Charge | Immediate start 🌆 Most bars have a view or a community. The Observatory has both - 53 floors above London. The Observatory is a Sky Bar & Restaurant on the 53rd floor of Wardian, looking out over Canary Wharf and the whole of London. It's one of the highest bars in the city - and it's exclusively for the developments residents & their guests. That last part is what makes this job different from every other Head Bartender role you'll scroll past today (well maybe the views as well). You're not serving a queue of strangers. You're looking after a community of around 1,500 residents & their guests who treat this as their local, their living room and their party venue. Regulars come in weekly. You'll know their names, their drinks and their birthdays. It has the feel of a private members' club, without the stiffness. We're looking for someone to take real ownership of it. 🚀 THE ROLE You'll help run The Observatory Bar day to day - leading the small team, keeping cocktail and service standards high, and being the face residents come to. Alongside that, the venue hosts a busy year-round events calendar: birthdays, engagements, weddings, seasonal parties and private hires, plus the events we programme ourselves. To be clear about the events side: you're the host, not the event planner. Our dedicated events team handles the logistics, the planning and the bigger productions. Your part is being the person residents talk to, helping shape the drinks and the feel of the night, and delivering it brilliantly on the day. If you've worked functions or private hires before, you'll be right at home. If you're a superb bartender who's keen to grow into that side, we'll teach you. Day to day you'll: • Lead from the front behind the bar, delivering excellent cocktails and genuine hospitality, • Take ownership of the running of the bar - standards, stock, ordering, prep and organisation, • Build real relationships with residents and be their first point of contact for bookings, • Look after resident celebrations and private hires from enquiry through to the night itself, • Lead, train and develop the team, • Work with our events team on the larger bookings and the annual events calendar, • Grow the events side of the venue and get residents using the space more, • Work with senior management on drinks menus, and where The Observatory goes next as we enter an exciting new chapter. 💥 WHAT YOU'LL GET • Tips and service charge on top of your pay., • ⏰ Sociable hours. We open at 4pm on weekdays and midday at weekends. No breakfast shifts, no 3am finishes, no split shifts., • Genuine ownership of a unique venue rather than one site among many, • 📈 Room to grow. We're a multi-site London group - Supershakes, Beringers, Lockdown, The Eleventh Hour - and we'd far rather promote from within than recruit in., • Involvement in menu development, supplier tastings and the events programme, • Staff food and drinks on shift, plus discounts across all our venues, • Support from an experienced events and senior hospitality team, • A team that actually enjoys working together, • days holiday 🔥 WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR • Solid bartending experience, ideally with time in a management or senior role, • Strong cocktail knowledge and consistency under pressure, • Some experience of events, functions or private hires - or real appetite to learn it, • A natural host who genuinely likes people and remembers them, • Organised, proactive and comfortable owning a space, • Calm and confident through a busy service, • Someone who cares about the details, because our regulars notice them And honestly: we're looking for someone who wants to stay. Building a relationship with a community of regulars takes time, and it's the best part of this job - but only if you're here long enough to enjoy it. If you're looking for somewhere to settle, put your stamp on and grow with, this is it. ⚡ WHY THIS ONE There aren't many jobs like this in London. One shift you're making cocktails for a couple who come in every Friday. The next you're helping them plan their engagement party, 53 floors above the city. If that sounds like the kind of place you'd like to run, we'd love to meet you. Apply now and let's have a chat 👋

General Manager – Ivan Ramen Farringdon Farringdon, London Up to £45,000 per year, depending on experience Full-time Ivan Ramen is looking for a highly hands-on General Manager to lead our Farringdon restaurant through its next stage. This is not a traditional FOH-led General Manager role. Our Farringdon restaurant is evolving towards a faster, more streamlined, QSR-style operation. As that happens, the GM role is increasingly focused on running the whole operation — and that includes the kitchen. You will spend a significant part of your working week in the kitchen. You'll need to be comfortable working alongside the kitchen team during service, learning and working stations, managing prep, running kitchen shifts and stepping directly into the operation when needed. You need to genuinely enjoy working in a kitchen and be prepared to cook. What you'll be responsible for You'll have overall responsibility for the performance of the restaurant, but you'll lead it from inside the operation. That includes: • Regularly working kitchen stations during service, • Understanding and managing prep, production and kitchen deployment, • Leading busy services across both kitchen and FOH, • Driving ticket times, food quality and consistency, • Recruiting, training and developing the team, • Building rotas and deploying people effectively across the restaurant, • Managing labour against sales, • Managing stock, ordering, waste and COGS, • Maintaining excellent food safety, cleanliness and restaurant standards, • Managing delivery alongside the in-store operation, • Using sales and operational data to improve performance, • Helping introduce and embed new systems and ways of working As our service model becomes increasingly streamlined, we expect the GM to become even more involved in the kitchen and production side of the restaurant. Hours & availability This is a full-time, operational restaurant role. You'll typically work 45+ hours per week, across a mixture of shifts based on the needs of the restaurant. You must be available to work evenings and weekends. As General Manager, you'll be expected to be present for key trading periods, including busy evening and weekend services. We believe a restaurant is best led by a GM who is there when the team and business need them most. Who we're looking for We're open-minded about where you've come from. You might already be a GM. You could be an Assistant GM ready to step up. Or you might come from a kitchen or QSR management background and want broader responsibility for a restaurant. Experience in QSR, fast casual, high-volume casual dining or a strong independent restaurant would be particularly relevant. More important is how you like to work. You're someone who: • Is genuinely comfortable working in a kitchen, • Is willing to learn and work every station, • Enjoys being in the middle of a busy service, • Is available and willing to work evenings and weekends, • Thinks about speed, prep, deployment, labour, waste and consistency, • Can lead and develop both kitchen and FOH teams, • Understands the commercial side of running a restaurant, • Takes initiative and solves problems, • Doesn't believe any job in the restaurant is beneath the GM Ivan Ramen still has the pace and personality of an independent business. We're continuing to develop how we operate, so you'll need to be comfortable taking ownership rather than expecting a corporate playbook for every situation. Why Ivan Ramen? This is an opportunity to take real ownership of a restaurant and have a meaningful influence on how it develops. You'll be joining a business that's becoming faster, simpler and more operationally focused, without losing the food and personality at the heart of Ivan Ramen. We're looking for someone who gets satisfaction from making the operation work better — developing people, improving systems, controlling the numbers and getting into the kitchen to deliver great food. If that sounds like the kind of GM you are, we'd love to hear from you.

Assistant General Manager — Progression to General Manager MEAA London MEAA is looking for an ambitious, experienced Assistant General Manager to join our London restaurant with a clear objective: develop into the General Manager role within approximately 3–6 months. This is not a conventional AGM position. We are looking for someone capable of becoming the person ultimately responsible for one of our busiest restaurants. MEAA London is a high-volume operation serving approximately 4,000 covers per week, with around 150 covers and generating approximately £100,000 in weekly revenue. It combines the pace and complexity of a major-volume restaurant with the standards, attention to detail and personal service expected from a premium hospitality business. The opportunity You will initially work alongside the existing management team, learning the MEAA operation, culture and standards while progressively taking responsibility for the restaurant. The 3–6 month development period will cover the full GM remit, including: * Leading a large FOH and management team through high-volume services * Maintaining consistently high standards across up to 4,000 weekly covers * Taking ownership of guest experience and handling issues confidently * Recruitment, onboarding, training and development * Building a strong management and supervisory team beneath you * Rotas, labour deployment and productivity * Sales performance and commercial decision-making * Wage and operating cost control * Restaurant P&L understanding and accountability * Driving average spend and identifying revenue opportunities * Maintaining service, presentation, cleanliness and brand standards * Using guest feedback and operational data to improve performance * Working closely with the Head Chef and kitchen leadership * Developing regular customers and ensuring our best guests are recognised * Leading pre-shifts, management meetings and performance reviews * Taking increasing responsibility for the entire operation until ready to step into the GM position Who we’re looking for We are not looking for someone who simply wants their next AGM job. We’re looking for somebody who wants to run a substantial restaurant and can demonstrate that they have the potential to do so. You will probably already be a strong AGM, Deputy GM or experienced senior restaurant manager within a high-volume operation and feel ready for the next step. You should be comfortable operating in an environment doing £100k+ per week and understand that delivering 4,000 covers requires organisation, pace and strong management rather than simply being visible on the restaurant floor. You should be: * A strong and confident leader * Commercially aware * Highly organised * Excellent with guests * Comfortable managing and developing people * Calm during extremely busy services * Able to hold people accountable without creating a negative culture * Obsessed with consistency and detail * Comfortable working with numbers and KPIs * Able to identify problems before they become problems * Hands-on when necessary, without becoming trapped in individual sections * Ambitious enough to want responsibility for the whole business Experience in a high-volume premium restaurant, busy independent group or quality multi-site restaurant business would be particularly relevant. What success looks like This role comes with a genuine progression plan. During your first months you will be expected to demonstrate that you can progressively take ownership of: People → Service → Operations → Commercial Performance → The Entire Restaurant The intention is that, once you have demonstrated that you can consistently operate the restaurant to the required standard, you will progress into the General Manager position. This is therefore an opportunity for someone who is already close to GM level but wants the opportunity, support and scale to make that step. About MEAA MEAA is built around excellent food, atmosphere and genuinely warm hospitality. We want high standards without stiff or scripted service. Our managers are expected to know their teams, know their customers and create an environment where people enjoy working as much as customers enjoy visiting. As MEAA grows, there will also be opportunities beyond individual restaurant management for the strongest people within the business. Location: London Position: Assistant General Manager Progression: General Manager Expected development period: approximately 3–6 months Restaurant volume: approximately 4,000 covers per week To apply: Send your CV together with a short introduction explaining the size and type of operation you currently manage and why you believe you’re ready to progress into a GM role.
