A challenging management role targets born leaders who are not afraid to get their hands dirty. As part of its expansion programme, an international restaurant chain is seeking to welcome a general manager on its Hong Kong team.
A United States-based chain with 900 outlets around the globe, Outback Steakhouse operates four restaurants in the SAR.
'As we are planning to open another restaurant at the end of 2005 or in early 2006, we are looking for a new general manager,' said operating partner Michael Domer.
'We are advertising now as we run a six-month training programme, which is a pretty serious commitment.'
The successful candidate will be required to handle every managerial duty associated with running a restaurant with a staff of 25 to 40 people and a management team of four, ranging from payroll duties to inventory, running profit and loss statements and purchasing.
Shouldering responsibility for marketing, the training and development of staff from managers to those hired on an hourly basis, ensuring cleanliness, developing customer satisfaction and maintaining service quality is therefore the name of the game.
This incentive-based position also includes a high level of autonomy.
