About Brine Brine is a modern restaurant and bar built around a simple idea: do things with intention. The food and drink is rooted in technique and the space is designed to feel as positive at the bar as it does around a table. But more than anything, Brine is shaped by its people. We’re looking for a General Manager who can help build the kind of restaurant we want Brine to be: high standards, great hospitality, a strong team and a place people genuinely want to come back to. The Role The General Manager is at the centre of how Brine operates and how it feels. You’ll own the day-to-day running of Brine, from service and operations to guest experience, team culture and standards. You’ll need to be equally comfortable looking at a P&L;, fixing an operational gap, dealing with a difficult guest and spending time with the team on the floor. This is a role for someone who understands that positive hospitality starts with how you treat your own people. What You’ll Own Guest Experience Set the tone for how guests are welcomed, looked after and remembered Be present on the floor and understand what is happening across every part of the restaurant Handle difficult situations calmly and with good judgement Build relationships with regulars and make first-time guests want to come back Look for opportunities to go beyond what is expected when it matters Operations & Systems Own the day-to-day running of the restaurant and bar Build and maintain the systems and processes that keep service consistent Work across rosters, SOPs, checklists, inventory,



cost controls and daily operations Identify where things are relying on memory or individual effort and build better systems around them Work closely with the kitchen and bar teams to make sure the entire experience works as one Keep the restaurant audit-ready and maintain high standards across hygiene, safety and compliance People Build and lead a team that is motivated to do good work Set standards clearly and hold people accountable without creating a culture of fear Coach people, give honest feedback and help them grow Create an environment where people feel respected, trusted and able to be themselves Lead by example. The culture starts with you The Brine Experience Brine is a place that should keep moving. The food, drinks, music, service and even the way the room feels can change. We want someone who notices when something has become stale and is willing to do something about it. If we’re bored by something, there’s a good chance our guests will be too. You’ll work closely with the founders and the leadership team to keep shaping what Brine becomes. What We’re Looking For Essential Minimum 2 years experience managing a restaurant,



bar or high-end hospitality operation Proven experience leading a sizeable team Robust operational understanding and experience building processes and systems Excellent communication and people skills Natural confidence and warmth with guests Calm and composed under pressure Strong commercial understanding of restaurant operations Someone who genuinely enjoys being on the floor and around people Preferred Experience working internationally Experience in a 5-star hotel or high-end hospitality setting Experience opening a restaurant or building operational systems from the ground up Strong understanding of food, beverage and service Who Does Well Here Someone who genuinely enjoys being around people and knows how to make a room feel good. They lead from the front, set the standard through their own behaviour and take the time to help people get better. Someone who is comfortable with high standards but doesn’t confuse them with rigidity. Someone curious enough to keep asking, can we do this better? And confident enough to change something when the answer is yes. Most importantly, someone who cares. About the guest, about the team, about the details and about the kind of place Brine becomes. What We Offer The opportunity to help shape a young restaurant with a clear point of view A close working relationship with the founders and leadership team The freedom to build, improve and contribute rather than simply follow an existing playbook Growth alongside a restaurant group that is actively building Compensation commensurate with experience To Apply Send your CV to [email protected] and [email protected], along with a short note on the most memorable experience you’ve had at a restaurant and why.
