Job description

About Solera

Solera is a scratch kitchen and wine bar on Main Street in Seal Beach, opened in 2026. We serve Modern European-inspired food rooted in French, Italian, and Spanish foundations, paired with a 60-label wine program featuring Old World selections, curated by-the-glass pours, and Coravin showcases. Charcuterie and Take Away are central to our concept. This is an owner-operated independent with high standards and a long-term vision.

The Role

We’re looking for a General Manager who can own the floor, lead the team, and run day-to-day operations independently. You’ll be the face of Solera to guests and the operational anchor for ownership. The goal is simple: within 90 days, the restaurant runs through you, not around you.

What You’ll Own

  • Full FOH management: staffing, scheduling, training, and service standards
  • Daily operations including open/close, cash controls, and POS reporting (SpotOn)
  • Reservation management via SevenRooms
  • Guest experience from greeting through the check, including table maintenance standards we hold to a high level
  • Onboarding and compliance: food handler cards, RBS certification, and staff documentation
  • Weekly reporting to ownership on covers, revenue, labor, and any issues

What We’re Looking For

  • 2+ years in a restaurant management role, preferably in an upscale or polished casual environment
  • Wine knowledge is a genuine plus — WSET, CSW, sommelier certification, or strong hands-on experience working with a wine program will set you apart
  • Strong operator: you know how to hold a team accountable while keeping the culture positive
  • Lives within 15 minutes of Seal Beach — non-negotiable for scheduling reliability
  • California RBS certified or willing to complete certification within 60 days of hire (company covers the cost)
  • Comfortable with modern POS and reservation systems

What This Isn’t

This is not a corporate job with layers of support. You’ll work directly with ownership and our Executive Chef. We move fast, we have high standards, and we need someone who wants to build something rather than manage a status quo.

Compensation

$75,000 salary. No tips pooled to management.
