On behalf of our client, a well -established hospitality group, we are looking for a General
Manager/Operating Partner to join their team in the Annapolis Valley.
About
The Client:
Our client is a successful hospitality group with multiple restaurant operations across Atlantic

and developing leaders who think like business owners. Backed by proven systems and an
experienced leadership team, they offer an environment where initiative, accountability, and fresh
ideas are encouraged and rewarded.
The
Opportunity:

for building a strong team culture, creating outstanding guest experiences, and driving business growth within your community.

The Ideal Candidate:
You're a people -first leader who knows how to motivate a team, build relationships, and create an environment where both employees and guests want to return.
While hospitality experience is certainly valuable, we're equally interested in leaders from retail, sales, customer service, business development, or other service -focused industries. What matters most is your ability to lead people, drive results, and take ownership of a business as if it were your own. You bring energy, accountability, and a genuine desire to be part of the community you serve.

âLead day -to -day restaurant operations, ensuring exceptional guest experiences

Qualifications:
âPrevious leadership experience in hospitality, retail, sales, customer service, operations, or a related field
âProven ability to motivate, coach, and develop teams
âStrong business acumen and understanding of operational performance metrics
âExperience managing customer -facing environments
âComfortable using technology, reporting tools, and business software
