West London here we come…The Hoxton is opening in Shepherd’s Bush!
East, central and south of the river – we’ve got it covered, but we couldn’t resist setting up a new home in West London. In November 2022 we’ll be opening our fourth London Hoxton in the heart of Shepherd’s Bush and we’re looking for a Assistant Restaurant General Manager to bring our brand to life in our newest postcode.
The Hoxton, Shepherd’s Bush will have 237 bedrooms of different sizes, a new restaurant concept and terrace, our Hox lobby bar and terrace and The Apartment (our unique meetings & events space).

- Supporting the pre-opening front of house restaurant team in an exciting new concept alongside the Director of Food & Beverage

- Working closely with the Director of Food & Beverage to create and plan initiatives and incentives, alongside a strong understanding of the guest booking and profiling system to drive revenue
- Have a firm grip on the P&L and take ownership over the costs of the restaurant business, always striving to find efficient solutions whilst keeping the quality high and the experience top notch
- Working closely with the Sous Chef and Head Chef so that front of house and back of house are working smoothly, hand-in-hand

- A natural at leading and managing others, you lead by example and create an environment where your team can be their best self

- Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night
- You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience
- You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get stuff done
