    Balham, Wandsworth

    Venue Manager – Pinky Burger Foundry Hospitality Group is looking for a friendly, energetic and highly organised Venue Manager to take care of the day-to-day running of Pinky Burger, our new burger, cocktail and karaoke concept in Balham. This isn’t a traditional restaurant management role. Pinky has a deliberately simple food operation, QR-code ordering, a dedicated bar person and support from our Operations Manager. What we need is someone who can take ownership of the venue and make sure every shift runs brilliantly. You’ll be responsible for opening and setting up the venue, keeping it clean, organised and looking great, welcoming guests, overseeing the floor and QR ordering system, coordinating with the kitchen and bar, managing the private karaoke room and making sure the atmosphere stays fun, friendly and well controlled. Most importantly, we’re looking for personality. You should genuinely enjoy meeting people, be confident talking to guests and have the sort of presence that makes people feel welcome from the moment they walk through the door. You don’t need years of restaurant management experience. You might currently be a supervisor, duty manager, assistant manager or an experienced front-of-house person ready to take the next step. Hospitality experience is important, but attitude, reliability, organisation and personality matter just as much. You’ll have the support of Foundry Hospitality’s Operations Manager, while having plenty of autonomy to make Pinky a great neighbourhood venue. The right person will be: • Warm, outgoing and naturally welcoming, • Reliable and highly organised, • Comfortable taking responsibility for a venue, • Experienced in hospitality, bars, restaurants or similar, • Happy working in a lively, informal environment, • Hands-on — willing to jump in wherever needed, • Confident managing busy evenings and late-night trade, • Someone who takes pride in keeping a venue spotless, organised and ready for service This is a great opportunity for someone looking for their first venue management position without stepping into the complexity of running a large traditional restaurant.

Pizza Social Club is an independent pizza concept based at BOXPARK Shoreditch. Our approach is simple: anything but classic pizza. From our signature Detroit-style pies to Pinsa and new pizza styles we’re currently developing, we like experimenting with different doughs, formats, flavours and toppings. We’re looking for an enthusiastic and reliable Line Chef to join our team and grow with us as we continue developing the menu. You don’t need to be a pizza expert — we’ll teach you our processes. What matters most is that you’re confident in a professional kitchen, work well under pressure and genuinely care about the food you send out. What you'll be doing • Preparing and cooking our different styles of pizza, • Handling daily food prep and mise en place, • Working the line during busy lunch and evening services, • Helping us maintain consistency across dough, toppings and finished dishes, • Getting involved in testing and developing new pizza styles and menu ideas, • Making sure every order leaves the kitchen looking and tasting great, • Following food safety, hygiene and kitchen procedures, • Keeping your section clean, organised and fully stocked, • Working closely with the rest of the team to keep service running smoothly We're looking for someone who • Has previous experience in a professional kitchen, • Has solid general kitchen and food-preparation skills, • Can work quickly and stay organised during busy service, • Is interested in pizza, dough and experimenting with different food concepts, • Is reliable, punctual and takes responsibility for their section, • Has a positive attitude and is willing to learn, • Communicates confidently in English, • Enjoys being part of a small, hands-on team, • Has a Level 2 Food Hygiene Certificate (preferred, but not essential) What you'll get • £13.50 - £14.50 per hour, depending on experience, • Full training on our pizza-making processes, • The opportunity to work with and learn different pizza styles, • A chance to contribute ideas and get involved in menu development, • A friendly, supportive and energetic team, • Hands-on experience in a growing independent food business, • Opportunities to take on more responsibility as we grow About Pizza Social Club We’re not trying to make another classic pizza.

We started with Detroit-style pizza and are now expanding the menu with Pinsa and other formats. We’re a small independent business, which means everyone on the team can make an impact. If you enjoy cooking, experimenting and want to be part of developing something rather than simply following the same menu every day, you’ll fit right in. Sound like you? We’d love to hear from you.

    £42,000–£52,000 per year Full-time | 45 hours per week Ria’s is a neighbourhood pizza and wine bar built around the simple pleasures of deep-pan pizza, natural wine and brilliant hospitality. We opened our first site in Notting Hill in 2023, followed by Soho in 2025, and we’re looking for an ambitious Assistant Manager to join the management team at Ria’s Soho. This is a hands-on management role with real ownership. You’ll work closely with the General Manager and Head Chef to run the site, lead and develop the team and ensure we consistently deliver the Ria’s experience - while taking direct responsibility for key areas of the business including stock performance, customer experience, training and team development. You’ll also work directly with the founders and management across both Ria’s sites, helping us operate as one business and continually improve how we do things. The Role As Assistant Manager, you’ll be a key part of the Soho management team and take ownership of both the day-to-day running of the restaurant and longer-term performance of the site. Service & Customer Experience You’ll be responsible for ensuring every service delivers the Ria’s standard. That means: • Leading busy services confidently and setting the standard on the floor, • Ensuring our Steps of Service are consistently followed across the FOH team, • Maintaining warm, efficient, knowledgeable and proactive hospitality, • Identifying issues during service and taking ownership of resolving them, • Driving consistency across everything from welcomes and product knowledge to check-backs, upselling and how we close the customer experience, • Owning customer feedback and reviews, identifying recurring themes and turning them into improvements, • Handling customer issues and complaints confidently and appropriately Team Leadership, Training & Development A big part of this role is building a brilliant, confident and consistent FOH team. You’ll: • Lead, motivate and manage the FOH team on shift, • Support the GM in onboarding and training new FOH team members, • Ensure every new starter understands our service standards, products and ways of working, • Deliver and coordinate ongoing FOH training across service, food, wine and hospitality, • Coach team members in real time and give clear, constructive feedback, • Work with the GM to identify development opportunities and progression within the team, • Help create a positive, high-performing culture built around accountability, teamwork and mutual respect, • Ensure standards don't slip when senior management isn't on the floor Stock & Commercial Performance You’ll have direct ownership of FOH stock management and performance. This includes: • Managing ordering, stock counts and stock levels, • Ensuring stock processes are accurate and consistently followed, • Monitoring weekly stock performance and ensuring the site operates within agreed targets, • Investigating variances and taking action when something isn't performing as expected, • Ensuring the right systems and training are in place to maintain strong stock control, • Understanding how day-to-day operational decisions affect the commercial performance of the restaurant We want someone who is comfortable with numbers and interested in understanding why something is happening, rather than simply reporting it. Site Operations Alongside the GM and Head Chef, you'll take responsibility for making sure Soho runs brilliantly day to day. You'll: • Take full responsibility for the restaurant when leading a shift, • Manage opening and closing procedures, • Ensure health & safety and operational standards are consistently followed, • Identify and manage site maintenance issues, • Support effective communication between FOH and BOH, • Manage group booking enquiries and ensure larger bookings are delivered brilliantly, • Spot operational problems and take initiative to fix them Working Across Ria’s Although you'll be based in Soho, we're one Ria’s team.

Who We're Looking For You might currently be an experienced Floor Manager, Senior Supervisor or Assistant Manager who's ready for more ownership. We're looking for someone who: • Has strong experience leading teams in a busy hospitality environment, • Is confident running a service and making decisions independently, • Leads from the floor and sets the standard through their own behaviour, • Has experience training, coaching and developing team members, • Is commercially minded and comfortable taking ownership of stock and operational targets, • Has exceptional attention to detail and genuinely cares about customer experience, • Communicates clearly and works well across FOH, BOH and senior management, • Takes initiative - if you see something that could be better, you're the kind of person who wants to improve it, • Loves hospitality, food and wine and wants to keep developing their knowledge Growing With Ria’s We're still a small, founder-led business meaning you'll work directly with the founders and senior team, have visibility across the business and be encouraged to contribute ideas and challenge how we do things.
