RESTAURANT MANAGER — Kelang Restoran (Brooklyn)
Greenpoint, Brooklyn
Kelang Restoran, a Malaysian "Brooklynese" restaurant, is looking for a restaurant manager who cares about hospitality and approaches it creatively. You’ll run the floor, steady the team, and keep things moving when the room gets loud.
What You’ll Do
- Manage lunch and dinner services with focus and calm.
- Lead a front-of-house crew of about 7 and work hand-in-hand with the kitchen.
- Keep communication clear — menus, policies, and updates shouldn’t feel like rumors.
- Help train new staff (and retrain old ones when needed).
- Handle scheduling, ordering, and menu management (POS and delivery platforms).
- Join weekly management meetings that lead somewhere. We don't like pointless meetings
either.
