A Rare Leadership Opportunity in Denver Dining
We’re looking for an exceptional Managing Partner to bring to life an elevated steakhouse experience in Denver. This is more than a job—it’s a chance to shape and lead a concept from the ground up. From pre-opening strategy to daily operations, you’ll have a seat at the table (literally and figuratively) in building a flagship destination for food, hospitality, and atmosphere.
What You'll Be Doing
- Be the day-to-day heartbeat of the restaurant, managing operations, guest experience, and team leadership
- Partner with ownership to finalize all pre-opening decisions—menu, design, service flow, brand touchpoints
- Hire, train, and mentor a top-tier team of hospitality professionals
- Deliver a consistently unforgettable guest experience that turns first-time diners into regulars
- Oversee all financials: P&L, labor, inventory, ordering, and cost controls
- Serve as the brand ambassador, building a strong presence in the Denver hospitality community
- Drive revenue through events, outreach, and VIP engagement
- Maintain operational excellence in cleanliness, compliance, and execution
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years in upscale or fine dining leadership roles
- Confident, polished floor presence with high emotional intelligence
- Experience managing $5M+ operations in a fast-paced setting
- Strong sense of ownership and accountability—someone who leads from the front
- Deep understanding of high-touch service, wine & beverage programs, and team culture
- Strong personal network or ability to build lasting guest relationships
- Willingness to work evenings, weekends, and holidays as the leader of the team
What You’ll Get
- Competitive compensation + performance-based bonus
- Strategic leadership opportunity with long-term growth potential
- Benefits package to be discussed at offer stage
This is a dream role for a service-obsessed leader who wants to leave their mark on Denver’s dining scene. If you’re passionate, driven, and ready to lead with purpose, we want to meet you.
