Restaurant Manager

About the Role

Grill’d is seeking a Restaurant Manager to lead a high-energy venue in Bedfordale, Western Australia. This is a hands-on leadership role focused on building strong teams, delivering great guest experiences, and keeping restaurant operations running smoothly. The business has more than 20 years of history, operates 175+ restaurants, and is continuing to expand, creating room for leaders who want to grow with the brand.

The role suits someone who enjoys motivating people, taking ownership, and working in a culture that values fun, growth, and community impact.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• An 8-week structured onboarding journey with leadership workshops and practical training to help you settle in quickly.
• Clear progression pathways into Venue Manager, Area Manager, Support Office roles, or even restaurant ownership through the Grill’d Partner Program.
• Uncapped monthly bonuses linked to sales performance.
• Recognition and celebration opportunities, including Hall of Flame trips to Bali, London, Singapore, or Cambodia, plus the G.O.A.T leadership conference.
• A values-led workplace with a people-first culture.
• Community-focused initiatives such as City Support Nights and Local Matters.
• Flexible working arrangements.
• Additional support and rewards including free Grill’d burgers, EAP wellness support, and a Fun Fund for team experiences.

Key Duties

You will lead a team of 20 to 50 team members, support their performance, and ensure the restaurant operates to a strong standard across people, process, and financial outcomes.

• Lead and motivate the restaurant team to achieve engagement and performance goals.
• Oversee rostering, hiring, stock management, and compliance with guidance from the Area Manager.
• Conduct regular check-ins, performance reviews, and development planning to help team members grow.
• Manage budgets, profit and loss, and key operational metrics.
• Deliver and champion the Local Matters program to strengthen community connections.

Selection Criteria

• Experience leading teams in a fast-paced hospitality or restaurant environment.
• Ability to manage operations, staffing, and compliance responsibilities effectively.
• Comfort working with financial reports, budgets, and KPIs.
• Strong people leadership skills with an emphasis on coaching and development.
• Willingness to work in a busy onsite restaurant setting.
