General Manager
Boqueria Restaurant•New York, NY
•$90,000 - $110,000•Onsite
About The Position
Run one of Midtown's best-kept rooftop secrets. Castell sits on top of the AC Hotel New York Times Square. It's a classic cocktail lounge rebuilt for now: martinis done right, cocktails that are part throwback and part invention, a fireplace lounge, a granite bar and an open-air terrace that looks out over Midtown. We're polished but never stuffy, and we're looking for a General Manager to lead the room and the team.
Requirements
- Management experience at a craft cocktail bar or high-end venue, with real beverage management experience.
- Comfort with our systems: OpenTable, Toast, Restaurant365 and Dolce, plus Microsoft Office with strong Excel skills.
- Strong organizing and planning skills, and you can set priorities.
- Energy, positivity and a good sense of humor.
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- Required food safety certifications will be obtained and confirmed upon hire.
Nice To Haves
- You think hospitality starts with your team, and you lead like a coach.
- You're at your best on the floor, and you know how to turn a first-time guest into a regular.
- You love the cocktail world, from the perfect martini to keeping your pour cost tight.
- You sweat the details, take ownership and own your numbers.
- You keep your sense of humor on a full Saturday night.
Responsibilities
- Lead the experience: set the tone on the floor every night and make sure each guest gets Castell at its best.
- Build the culture: hire, coach and develop a team that lives our core values, and model those values yourself.
- Run the bar program: manage beverage inventory, track usage and control costs so stock levels and waste stay where they should be.
- Own the business: hit or beat financial targets, and understand how each operational decision affects the P&L.
- Keep us ready: make sure we're prepared for every service and ready for a DOH inspection on any given day.
- Deliver standout events: work with our dedicated Event Sales Manager, who books large-group, private and corporate events. You make sure every event is staffed, ready and run to the same standard as a night on the floor.
Benefits
- medical, dental, vision, disability, life and supplemental coverage.
- paid time off, discounted meals and flexible scheduling.
- a path to grow with Boqueria Restaurant Group, an upscale restaurant group
- a team with high standards that takes care of each other.
