General Manager – AngloThai (Michelin star)

£75k + bonus

OVERVIEW

AngloThai is a Thai inspired restaurant in Marylebone, that opened in November 2024. It achieved a Michelin star just four months after opening. In the first year it was ranked as Nr 7 in National Restaurant Awards Top 100 and named as The Square Opening of the Year.

The kitchen is led by Chef John Chantarask, who is half British and half Thai - his food is innovative, re-imagining Thai flavours through hyper seasonal produce. The restaurant has around 50 covers, and a 16 cover private dining room - Baan. The wine programme is designed and led by John's partner, Desiree.

We are looking for an exceptional, passionate, guest focused General Manager to lead this restaurant through its next chapter.

This is a hands-on, floor first leadership role for someone who lives and breathes hospitality, as comfortable creating magical guest moments as managing the business.

As General Manager, you will own every aspect of the guest experience, lead a talented team of hospitality professionals, and uphold the standards that earned us our Michelin star.

You will manage the full operation of our restaurant, kitchen and Baan our Private Dining room and be accountable for both the culture and performance of the restaurant.

What we are looking for:

• Minimum 2-4 years' experience as a General Manager.
• Proven track record in managing quality restaurants (£70K+ net per week average).
• Obsessed with guest experience, hands-on, floor-based, and leading from the front.
• An empathic and respected people leader who builds positive team culture.
• Diligent custodian of the physical site, maintaining impeccable standards across property, facilities, and cleanliness.
• Expert at managing Heads of Department, delegating, developing, and holding teams accountable so the restaurant runs seamlessly in your absence.
• Strong in recruitment, training, and team progression across all areas of the restaurant.
• Exceptional attention to detail, spotting issues before they arise across guest experience, people, and operations.
• P&L expert: driving revenue through covers, SPH, events and local engagement, while managing labour, GP and all controllable costs with precision.
• Strategic thinker who proactively identifies improvements and implements solutions.
