- Train and guide service staff on SOPs, service etiquette, and product knowledge
- Prepare and support basic operational reports (sales, manpower, service issues)
- Ensure cleanliness, hygiene, and safety standards are maintained at all times
- Enforce company policies fairly and consistently
What We're Looking For
- Prior experience as an Assistant Restaurant Manager or Senior Supervisor in F&B
- Familiarity with Peranakan, Chinese, or Asian dining concepts
- Comfortable managing a fast-paced dining floor and peak-hour pressure
- Strong people management skills - firm, fair, and calm
- Able to communicate clearly with both service and kitchen teams
- Comfortable handling basic reporting and operational admin
- Willing to work shifts, weekends, and public holidays
- Someone who takes responsibility seriously and understands accountability
