The Opportunity: Lead the Coast’s Newest High-Volume Icon

We are seeking a high-caliber General Manager to take the helm of our newest, high-volume upscale dining destination in Virginia Beach. Following a successful first month of operations, we are moving into the next phase of our growth: operational excellence. This isn't just a "job"—it’s a chance to partner with an award-winning restaurant group and put your thumbprint on a flagship location. We need a confident, culture-first leader who can transition a high-energy opening into a stabilized, world-class operation.

Why Top Operators Join Our Group:

  • The Culture: We are known for high standards and low turnover. We treat our leaders like partners.
  • The Compensation: A strong base ($90k–$120k) plus a transparent bonus structure that rewards your results.
  • The Support: You aren't on an island. You will have a robust regional support system and a high-performing BOH team.
  • The Future: As a growing group, we prioritize internal promotion for Director and Multi-Unit roles.
  • Relocation Assistance: We want the best talent in the country and are prepared to help you make Virginia Beach your new home.

Your Mission as General Manager:

  • Refine & Polish: Take the initial momentum of our opening and turn it into a well-oiled machine through system refinement and precision.
  • Team Empowerment: Mentor a diverse FOH/BOH leadership team, fostering a culture of accountability and professional growth.
  • Guest Experience: Ensure every guest receives the "wow" factor that defines our brand, even at peak high-volume hours.
  • Financial Stewardship: Own the P&L. Drive profitability through smart labor management, COGS control, and revenue growth.

Who You Are:

  • A Proven Leader: You have 3+ years of experience managing high-volume ($6M+ annual), full-service, upscale casual or fine dining environments.
  • Systems-Minded: You enjoy the "puzzle" of restaurant operations—optimizing floor plans, refining service steps, and tightening costs.
  • People-Centric: You believe that a happy team leads to a happy guest. You are a coach at heart.
  • Relocation Minded: You are either local to VA Beach or excited to relocate to one of the East Coast’s premier coastal communities.
