About The Position

We are partnering with a well-established, high-volume restaurant group in Cambridge to hire an experienced General Manager to lead a unique all-day concept combining a bustling café with a full-service lunch and dinner restaurant.

This is an opportunity for a proven restaurant leader who enjoys being on the floor, building strong teams, creating a great guest experience, and managing the details behind a successful operation.
