Restaurant Manager m|f|d

Ready for your next big step? Starting mid-November, join us for the 2026/27 winter season (through mid-April) – and lead daily service operations at the heart of a 4*S hotel in Saalbach-Hinterglemm!

You're a host by conviction, you keep the overview even under pressure, and you lead your team with heart, structure, and clear communication? As Service Manager, you take on a key operational role in the day-to-day running of our upscale half-board restaurant – with real decision-making power, not just responsibility on paper.

Your Role

You run the entire service area operationally and are the first point of contact for guests, kitchen and management.

Leadership & Team

• Lead and motivate a team of Chef de Rang, sommelier, commis, interns and casual staff, so every shift runs structured and motivated
• Handle onboarding and training for new team members, so newcomers quickly become reliable colleagues
• Manage daily staff scheduling in close coordination with management, so staffing always matches demand

Guest Experience & Service Quality

• Run the service area operationally through breakfast, afternoon snacks and evening service, so each time of day holds its own standard
• Be the host for our international guests – present in the restaurant with a feel for quality, so every guest feels personally looked after
• Check food and drink menus daily, so offering and quality are always on point

Organization & Interfaces

• Work closely with kitchen, front desk and management, so processes stay efficient across department lines
• Ensure accurate till closings and keep an eye on stock, so the commercial side of the business checks out too

Your Profile

• Completed training in hospitality or gastronomy, so you start the leadership role with a solid foundation
• Several years of experience in upscale service, ideally with leadership experience, so you can guide a team confidently through any shift
• Expertise in food and beverage service; wine and digestif knowledge a plus
• Very good German and good English skills, so you communicate clearly with international guests and the team
• Organizational talent, a sense of responsibility and enjoyment of leading a team, with a hands-on mentality and leading by example rather than just delegating

Our Culture

We're not looking for a manager who just hands out tasks. We're looking for someone who leads from the front. Family-like, to us, means: we know each other, speak openly, and pull in the same direction – even between Service Manager and ownership, there aren't three layers of hierarchy, just a short path.

What to look forward to

A key operational role with real room to shape things at a 4*S hotel – your team, your processes, your decisions in day-to-day operations. After your shift: skiing, snowboarding, or simply unwinding on the mountain – with an exclusive Team House right on site.
