- Build and develop the front-of-house team, service standards and operational processes in partnership with the Head Chef and hotel leadership.
- Manage rostering, labour, stock control and financial performance while growing the venue’s local profile and revenue.
A new dining destination. A waterfront location. Your chance to shape something special.
Forget the traditional hotel food and beverage offering. We're creating something different. Think vibrant café culture, luxurious poolside dining, thoughtfully curated cocktails, leisurely long lunches and warm, inviting dinners. A destination with its own personality, where Sydney locals and visitors alike come together for great food, exceptional hospitality and an atmosphere worth coming back for.
We're looking for a hands-on, creative and commercially minded Venue Manager / F&B Manager who loves the detail behind exceptional hospitality and wants to play a genuine part in bringing a venue to life.
The Opportunity
This is your chance to take ownership of a boutique food and beverage operation within a premium lifestyle hotel, helping shape everything from the guest experience to the way the team operates.
You'll work closely with the Head Chef and hotel leadership team to develop a destination that attracts hotel guests and Sydney locals alike.
Think relaxed yet refined dining, poolside service, great cocktails, events and a venue that feels like somewhere you'd genuinely want to spend your day.
What you'll be bringing to life
- Develop and implement SOPs, service sequences and operational standards that set the venue up for success.
- Help shape cocktail lists, beverage offerings and memorable guest experiences.
- Build a confident, engaged FOH team who genuinely love hospitality.
- Elevate the poolside dining, restaurant and events experience.
- Partner with the Head Chef to refine offerings, menus and service delivery.
- Take ownership of rostering, labour, stock control and F&B financial performance.
- Drive local engagement and establish the venue as a destination in its own right.
Who we'd love to meet
You're a natural host who knows how to balance polished service with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

You'll bring:
- Strong restaurant or food and beverage leadership experience.
- A genuine passion for food, cocktails, service and the finer details.
- Confidence developing teams, service standards and operational processes.
- Sound commercial understanding and a proactive approach to driving revenue.
- A hands-on leadership style and genuine presence on the floor.
- The creativity, adaptability and initiative to help establish a venue's identity.
Hotel experience isn't essential. Great hospitality instincts absolutely are.
WHY THIS ONE?
- ~$110,000 + super + bonus potential
- An exciting opportunity to shape and elevate a refreshed hospitality concept.
- Creative involvement across cocktails, dining experiences and service standards.
- Support from an established international hotel group.
- Genuine career progression, development programs and global opportunities.

This is for someone who wants more than simply running a service. It's for a hospitality leader who wants to build something, put their personality into it and be proud of the experience they create.
