Job Description

We are seeking an experienced and highly motivated Assistant General Manager to join a sophisticated Mediterranean restaurant and beach club located within a lifestyle hotel in Las Vegas.

This is a high-energy, guest-facing leadership role for an accomplished hospitality professional who understands the demands of full-service restaurant operations and thrives in an environment where dining, nightlife, entertainment, and elevated guest experiences intersect.

The Assistant General Manager will work closely with the General Manager to lead daily operations, develop and motivate the team, maintain exceptional service standards, and ensure an outstanding experience for both restaurant and beach club guests.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support the General Manager in the overall operation of the restaurant and beach club
  • Lead daily front-of-house operations and ensure exceptional service standards
  • Be highly visible and engaged on the floor, setting the tone for both the guest experience and team
  • Recruit, train, coach, and develop a high-performing hospitality team
  • Maintain consistent standards across service, food and beverage, cleanliness, and guest interaction
  • Manage reservations, seating, service flow, and high-volume periods effectively
  • Handle guest concerns and service recovery with professionalism and sound judgment
  • Partner closely with culinary leadership to ensure seamless front- and back-of-house communication
  • Support beverage, nightlife, and entertainment operations
  • Assist with scheduling, labor management, inventory, ordering, and cost controls
  • Monitor sales, labor, and operating performance while identifying opportunities to improve profitability
  • Ensure compliance with health, safety, sanitation, and company standards
  • Support special events, activations, and high-profile guest experiences
  • Collaborate with hotel leadership and other departments to ensure a seamless overall guest experience

Qualifications

  • 5–7+ years of hospitality management experience, preferably in upscale or luxury environments
  • Full-service restaurant management experience is required
  • Previous nightlife, beach club, pool club, or entertainment venue experience strongly preferred
  • Proven experience leading and developing high-performing front-of-house teams
  • Strong understanding of restaurant operations, service standards, labor management, and financial performance
  • Experience working in fast-paced, high-volume environments
  • Excellent communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
  • Strong guest recovery and conflict-resolution abilities
  • Comfortable working evenings, weekends, holidays, and a flexible schedule based on business needs
  • Ability to remain calm, composed, and highly engaged during high-volume service
  • Hospitality or business degree preferred, but equivalent experience will be considered

Who You are

The ideal candidate is a polished, energetic, and hands-on hospitality leader who understands that exceptional service starts with strong leadership.

You are naturally present on the floor, confident leading a team, and comfortable interacting with a sophisticated and diverse clientele. You understand the pace and expectations of Las Vegas hospitality and can move seamlessly between an elevated dining experience and the energy of a busy beach club environment.

You bring strong operational discipline, but you're equally passionate about people, culture, and creating memorable guest experiences. Most importantly, you're a leader who can motivate a team, maintain high standards under pressure, and contribute positively to the culture of the operation.

Wish You Were Here Group is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
