Rare Leadership Opportunity at Dish & Spoon – Restaurant Manager Wanted

Are you ready to step into a pivotal role at one of Camberwell's most loved hospitality venues?

Dish & Spoon, a bustling café and brunch spot that's been delighting locals and Melbourne coffee lovers for the past 9 years, is on the lookout for a Restaurant Manager to help lead our talented team and elevate our service even further.

We're not your average suburban café. Operating under a passionate owner-operator model, we're known for:

  • Exceptional specialty coffee, with multiple brew methods that keep enthusiasts coming back.
  • Inspired food, crafted by a top-tier kitchen team with experience in hatted venues around the globe.
  • Genuine, old-school hospitality – warm, unpretentious, and consistently excellent.

About the Role:

As Restaurant Manager, you'll work alongside the Head Chef and Directors to ensure smooth daily operations while nurturing our vibrant team culture. You'll have the chance to truly shape the customer experience, contribute ideas, and take ownership of front-of-house leadership.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Upholding and enhancing our high standard of customer service
  • Managing FOH operations, stock control & ordering
  • Recruiting, training & mentoring staff
  • Creating efficient weekly rosters (we're open 7 days)
  • Supporting with cost control & venue efficiency
  • Ensuring workplace health & safety compliance

What We're Looking For:

  • Weekend availability
  • A cool head in a fast-paced, high-volume environment
  • Eagerness to learn and grow
  • Leadership skills with a hands-on attitude
  • Specialty coffee experience a big plus

What You'll Get in Return:

  • A rare opportunity to work with a team of passionate hospitality professionals with over 40 years of combined experience
  • Ongoing training and mentorship in all areas – coffee, food, service, and venue operations
  • A clear growth path – perfect if you're planning to one day run or own your own venue
  • A fun, supportive team culture that values creativity, initiative, and mutual respect

If you're a driven, people-focused leader who thrives in a dynamic environment and loves great coffee and food, we want to hear from you.

Apply now and let's chat about your future with Dish & Spoon Camberwell.
