At the heart of Meteora's success is a culture of collaboration, professionalism, and continuous growth, ensuring each member contributes to the overarching vision of bespoke hospitality.

The General Manager role at Meteora is crucial to sustaining and enhancing this distinguished reputation. This position is integral to the leadership team, focusing on managing the Front of House (FOH) daily operations to achieve an elevated, highly personalized guest experience consistent with the sophisticated ambitions of the cuisine. As the General Manager, you will oversee all facets of FOH service execution, from guest relations to staff development, ensuring that service quality meets the highest standards of warmth and precision. Your leadership will inspire the FOH team, mentoring staff to foster a collaborative and professional environment that aligns with Meteora’s core values.

Additionally, the General Manager will be responsible for strategic oversight of reservations and communication, maintaining seamless interaction with guests and optimizing booking strategies through systems like OpenTable and Toast.

You will work closely with culinary and beverage leaders to ensure integration of services, smooth coordination of dining room readiness, and maintenance of Point of Sale (POS) accuracy.

This position demands a hands-on hospitality leader who thrives under pressure, demonstrates exceptional organizational skills, and understands the intricacies of fine dining service and beverage. The ideal candidate is both detail-oriented and service-driven, able to handle the dynamic nature of high-end operations with calm professionalism. Flexibility in schedule is essential, as nights, weekends, and holidays are integral to this role. This opportunity at Meteora is perfect for a polished, thoughtful operator who values leading from the floor and takes pride in building exceptional teams that deliver unforgettable guest experiences.
