Restaurant General Manager

Confidential Resort Property | Southeastern U.S. | $75,000–$85,000 + Bonus + Relocation

A confidential, upscale mountain resort in the Southeast is seeking a strategic and service-driven Restaurant General Manager to lead a critical transformation of its signature restaurant ahead of a full renovation scheduled for early 2026.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base Salary : $75,000 to $85,000
• Bonus : 10 to 15 percent discretionary bonus in 2026
• Relocation : Support provided (in development)
