Full time

This November, we’re opening our tenth, and biggest, Caravan at the Southbank. And we’re looking for an exceptional Assistant General Manager to help lead our restaurant team. We’re after someone kind, confident and genuinely passionate about what they do. Someone who knows how to lead and inspire a team, is passionate about being a hospitality leader, and gets a kick out of helping their team develop and give their guests the best experience possible

You’ll be joining Caravan as we open a special new restaurant, with two floors, multiple bars and plenty of opportunity to make your mark from day one.

The role

As Assistant General Manager, you’ll work alongside your General Manager and the management team to make sure the day\-to\-day operation of the business runs brilliantly every day. That means setting the standard for health \& safety, culture, hospitality and developing the team around you to make sure every guest that leaves the restaurant has the best experience possible. You’ll know how to lead from the front, when to coach and when to jump in and help get things moving.

• Manage systems including Fourth, Harri and All Gravy to oversee the rota, payroll and compliance


• Maintain property standards, health \& safety, and compliance with EHO/Food Alert


• Contribute to management meetings, audits, and action plans

Since 2010, we’ve been serving well\-travelled food, specialty coffee and drinks inspired by flavours and ideas from around the world.

We’re a business built around curious people. People who care about what they do, look out for each other and aren’t afraid to try something new. With more openings ahead and a big focus on developing our own people, there’s plenty of room to grow with us too.

Plus, when you work at Caravan you enjoy:

• Free meals \& drinks when on shift

• Real career progression \- 80% of our management roles are filled internally

We live by four core values, and our Assistant General Manager, and every team member would live, promote and role model them:

• All welcome \- We make space for everyone at our table


• No boundaries \- Grow, develop and thrive, just a little bit each day


• Caravan of Love \- Bring the energy, and be part of the change you want to see in the world


• Well\-travelled \- Be curious; learn, taste, experiment and share that knowledge with those you meet along the way

We're all in on both environmental and social sustainability practices. Every team member plays their part in maintaining our B\-Corp certification targets.
