POSITION INFO:

GENERAL MANAGER – NEW THAI RESTAURANT OPENING | DURBAN NORTH COAST

Big energy. Stunning coastal setting. Serious volume.

A leading hospitality brand is launching a bold new Thai dining destination on the Durban North Coast — and we’re looking for a General Manager who can open strong, lead from the floor, and build a team guests will remember.

This is not a maintenance role. This is a build-it, shape-it, drive-it opportunity.

The Role

• Run the full restaurant operation — FOH + BOH
• Lead, hire, train and inspire a winning team
• Own the guest experience from arrival to farewell
• Drive service flow in a high-volume, high-expectation environment
• Manage stock, costs, labour and performance targets
• Work closely with kitchen leadership to deliver seamless service
• Help position the venue as a must-visit destination

Essential Experience

• Minimum 2 years’ experience as a General Manager within a luxury, fast-paced hospitality environment is non-negotiable
• Applications that do not meet this requirement unfortunately will not be considered

You Are

• Hands-on, visible, and naturally guest-focused
• Commercially sharp and operationally strong
• Calm under pressure and thrive in busy service
• Passionate about culture, food, and creating atmosphere
• Opening experience = a strong advantage

What’s On Offer

• Strong, performance-linked package
• Career growth within an established hospitality group
• Opportunity to shape a flagship new opening
• Incredible coastal working environment

If you love fast service, strong teams, big energy and unforgettable dining experiences — this one’s calling.
