General Manager

Jun 2016 - May 2021
I was Responsible for overseeing all of the restaurant's operations, which includes hiring and firing staff, purchasing food, supplies, and equipment, and dealing with suppliers and vendors. I also oversaw maintenance and upkeep of the dining areas, kitchen, and exterior grounds of the restaurant; scheduling of staff; decisions regarding the menu; budgeting, accounting, payroll, and other financial matters; promoting and advertising the restaurant; and dealing with the legal and regulatory issues involved in running a business. I was likely on the premises most of the time, particularly during busy dining times or busy seasons. I interacted with customers from time to time, but am more likely working behind the scenes to keep the whole operation running smoothly. There may be additional areas of responsibility, such as marketing and promotion, finding entertainment, or scheduling other events. I am skilled in handling stressful working conditions, an excellent multitasker, and able to deal with frequent interruptions calmly and decisively. Depending on the size of the restaurant, I may not directly involve myself in every aspect or task in the restaurant; that means delegation is a key skill for any manager. Extensive experience with restaurant employment and management is helpful to the assistant general manager. Show less
