Floor Manager (m/f/d)
About this role
What you’ll do… Be out on the floor and lead by example. Create a fun, relaxed atmosphere, welcome familiar faces and first-timers, and keep your cool when the room fills up. Bring Charlotte’s to life throughout the day, from Breakfast, a coffee, a quick bite to aperitivo, dinner and one more drink. Make the space feel welcoming, lived-in and unmistakably Hox. Read the guest and help your team do the same. Know when someone needs a quick lunch, a little guidance or time to settle in.
Be warm, knowledgeable and there when it matters. Own the flow of service: allocate sections, organise food running, manage reservations and walk-ins, and keep the floor, bar and kitchen talking to each other. Keep standards consistent from the first hello to the last goodbye, with prompt drinks, accurate orders, thoughtful check-backs and tables that are ready for the next guest. Lead clear daily briefings covering bookings, events, menu updates, dietary requirements, sales priorities and who’s doing what.
Make sure every shift starts ready. Coach and develop the service team, help new starters find their feet and give useful feedback in the moment. Work closely with the Head Bartender, baristas and Culinary Head Chef to keep food and drinks moving together, share feedback and build product knowledge through regular tastings and training. Know the menu inside out, from Charlotte’s classics and sharing plates to wines, cocktails and barista coffee.
Turn that knowledge into natural recommendations that suit the guest. Take ownership when something goes wrong. Listen, find a sensible solution within your authority, record the feedback and follow up so we learn from it. Keep opening, closing, cleanliness and side duties on track. Check the room’s lighting, music, furniture and presentation, and follow up on maintenance issues. Make food safety, allergen communication, responsible alcohol service and health and safety part of everyday service.
Check dietary requests with the kitchen and never guess. Help bring local collaborations and Charlotte’s events to life. Share ideas that give our neighbours a reason to drop in and our guests a reason to stay. What we are looking for… Experience as a Floor Manager, Restaurant Supervisor or Assistant Restaurant Manager in a busy restaurant, hotel bar or lifestyle hotel, with the confidence to lead a shift. A natural host who enjoys being with guests and can balance a relaxed atmosphere with attentive, well-organised service.
