Operational

Operations Manager

Are you a leader who already has experience leading a team but is ready for more responsibility?
Are you looking for a place where you not only run the operations but are truly ultimately responsible for atmosphere, team, figures, and growth?

As a Manager, you are the face of the establishment. You carry the daily responsibility and make sure everything aligns: from staff planning and team development to guest experience and results. You lead your team with confidence, create structure and energy on the floor, and actively contribute to the further growth of the business. Within our hospitality group in Amsterdam, you have the opportunity to work entrepreneurially. You liaise directly with the owners and management and have an influence on decisions that matter. Not an executive role, but a position in which you provide direction.

And perhaps more importantly: together we look at where you fit best.
Do you feel at home on the sunny terrace of Kanis? In the creative living room atmosphere of Fest? With the vibrant energy of Lely? In the neighborhood feel of De Groene Olifant? Or at the unique Amsterdam venue Winkel 43?

We actively help you find the right fit between your leadership style, ambitions, and one of our establishments. This way, you get the responsibility you seek in a place where you gain energy and can continue to build.
