Job Description
Cooper's Hawk is a unique dining and lifestyle brand that combines a Napa-style tasting room with wine-inspired retail offerings and a full-service restaurant, bar, and private event space. Since its establishment in 2005, Cooper's Hawk has sought to bring the rich experience of Napa Valley to guests and Wine Club members through exceptional culinary and wine experiences. The restaurant features a scratch kitchen where all menu items are carefully crafted to pair perfectly with Cooper's Hawk's award-winning wines. One of the most distinctive features of the brand is its Wine Club, one of the largest in the world, which offers members exclusive benefits that include specially curated dining and travel experiences. With the addition of Piccolo Buco by Cooper's Hawk, the company has expanded to include vibrant Roman flavors, further enriching its portfolio and broadening the lifestyle experience it delivers to its customers. Cooper's Hawk is dedicated to creating a casual yet modern dining atmosphere that delights guests with every visit and fosters a sense of community through its passionate approach to hospitality and wine.
The Restaurant Manager role at Cooper's Hawk is a critical leadership position responsible for overseeing the operational complexities of a high-volume, full-service restaurant with a scratch kitchen, a retail market, tasting room, and Wine Club program. This role goes beyond typical shift management: it involves growing and inspiring a dedicated team, delivering exceptional, personalized hospitality, and building a thriving Wine Club community. The Restaurant Manager will be expected to maintain high operational standards while adding unique touches that convert ordinary moments into lasting memories for guests. This role requires a strategic mindset, strong leadership skills, and financial acumen to manage inventory, budgeting, and departmental performance effectively. The manager will use technology such as POS systems, scheduling, inventory software, and Microsoft Office to keep operations running smoothly. In addition to managing staff hiring, training, and scheduling, the manager will uphold safety, security, and operational policies to maintain a safe and healthy workplace. Collaboration is key, as the manager will lead cross-departmental teamwork between the front-of-house and kitchen teams, coach employees to ensure smooth shift execution, and partner with the General Manager to meet restaurant objectives.
Cooper's Hawk values personal and professional development, offering career growth opportunities in a supportive environment. The manager will drive the growth of the Wine Club by educating and engaging guests, empowering the team to create unforgettable experiences, and celebrating successes with both staff and patrons. Compensation for this position ranges from $55,000 to $65,000 per year, plus up to 10% bonus potential. Benefits include medical, dental, vision, wellness discounts, paid parental leave, paid time off, 401(k) with company match, and exclusive employee discounts. Cooper's Hawk is an equal opportunity employer committed to a diverse and inclusive workplace and reasonable accommodations through all stages of employment.
