Bring the Energy. Lead the Floor. Own the Guest Experience.

Welcome to Carolina Ale House

LM Restaurants is an award-winning, family-owned restaurant group committed to nourishing our people, our community, and our world. We are large enough to offer the stability, resources, and benefits of a well-established company, while still being small enough to treat our team like family.

We are looking for a Front of House Manager who is ready to lead from the floor, inspire the team, and help create the kind of atmosphere that keeps guests coming back.

If you are someone who knows how to work hard, have fun, and lead with energy, you will thrive here. We are looking for a leader who knows how to keep the front of house running strong, build team accountability, and create a guest experience that feels fast, welcoming, and memorable. If you are the kind of person who takes ownership, leads confidently in a high-volume environment, and brings ideas that help grow both the team and the business, Carolina Ale House in Concord Mills could be the right fit for you.
