You will work alongside our senior leadership team to establish NIPO as one of Harrogate's most exciting and sought-after dining destinations.

We are looking for a passionate, driven and inspirational leader who thrives in a fast-paced premium hospitality environment and understands that attention to detail, consistency and outstanding service are what set great restaurants apart.

What We Offer

• An excellent salary and bonus package for the right candidate one of the most attractive General Manager opportunities in the region.
• The opportunity to lead an exciting new premium restaurant from its launch.
• Full support from an established and successful restaurant group.
• The chance to build and develop your own management and front-of-house team.
• A key role in shaping the culture, standards and guest experience from day one.
• Genuine long-term career progression as the NIPO brand continues to grow.

We Are Looking For

• An experienced General Manager with a proven track record in premium, high-volume restaurants.
• A passionate leader who inspires, develops and motivates high-performing teams.
• Someone who leads by example and sets exceptionally high standards across every aspect of the business.
• Outstanding organisational, financial and operational management skills.
• A strong focus on guest satisfaction, team engagement and attention to detail.
• Experience managing large teams while consistently delivering exceptional service.
• Confidence in recruitment, coaching, performance management and developing future leaders.
• Excellent commercial awareness with experience managing labour, stock control, budgets and profitability.
• Experience within premium dining, steakhouse, Japanese, fusion or luxury hospitality environments would be highly advantageous.

This is a rare opportunity for a General Manager who wants more than just another management position. We are looking for someone who wants to build something exceptional, create an unforgettable guest experience and play a key role in the success of an exciting new restaurant concept.

If you have the passion, leadership and ambition to set new standards in hospitality, we'd love to hear from you.
