Restaurant Manager

Regatta is Takapuna’s waterfront local, reimagined as a modern New Zealand sailing-club bistro. Relaxed, polished and made for long lunches, sunset drinks and busy summer nights, it brings together great food, sharp service and one of Auckland’s best coastal outlooks. We’re building a team with personality, confidence and genuine hospitality at its core.

If you love creating great guest experiences and want to be part of an exciting new chapter for an iconic Takapuna venue, we’d love to hear from you. Regatta is looking for our next superstar in the shape of a Restaurant Manager; a natural born leader who has a knack for mentorship and driving the people around you. You will ideally hold a current Manager’s Certificate and have 3+ years’ experience in a management position within the hospitality industry, particularly in a venue with a high-end offering.

You will be responsible for leading Front of House operations, taking ownership of the bistro's service standards and ensuring a consistently exceptional guest experience. You will train, coach and manage the wait staff team, creating a positive, high performing service culture while maintaining operational excellence.

Alongside this, you will oversee customer relationship management, booking systems, team development and other key business functions that contribute to the success of the venue. You fit into the team like a glove and are a key leader of the team, knowing how to go above and beyond for our customers as well as our people.
