Gray’s Hall is looking for a General Manager to lead the room, the team, and the culture. The GM reports directly to the owner and will play a central role in shaping the day-to-day experience of the restaurant.
The GM sets the tone. They are visible, energetic, and deeply engaged with both guests and staff. They have an eye for the whole room, how it looks, feels, sounds, and moves, and are constantly working to make it better.
Position Summary:
We are looking for someone who can lead from the floor, jump into any part of the operation when needed, and also step back and see the whole picture. Someone who can set clear expectations for the team while building a culture where people take pride in their work, have fun, and genuinely enjoy taking care of people.
The GM should be comfortable running a business as well as a room. They should understand the importance of sales, costs, labor, and inventory, and be able to make smart decisions that protect both the culture and the bottom line. They should be organized, financially minded, highly observant, and comfortable making decisions.
Most importantly, they should be kind, funny, and genuinely interested in people. They should care about creating community, making regulars, and building a team where talented people want to stay and grow. They should also have a genuine interest in wine and be excited to continue learning, sharing that knowledge with the team, and helping make Gray’s a place where people can discover and get excited about wine.
Be cool. Be nice. Make regulars. Have fun.
