Front of House Manager
About The Position
Inspiration Brewing is putting the finishing touches on our new Irish-inspired craft brewpub in Elizabethtown. We are about 75% complete with our buildout and gearing up for our grand opening. In traditional Irish pub culture, the public house is the living room of the community—a cozy, welcoming gathering place built on great beer, hearty dining, and genuine hospitality (Céad Míle Fáilte). As a full-service restaurant and craft taproom, we are looking for a hands-on, high-energy Front of House Manager to step onto the site immediately, take ownership of our dining room and bar setup, and lead us across the finish line into launch.
