A globally celebrated restaurant and nightlife concept is launching its first U.S. location in NYC’s NoMad neighborhood — and is seeking a seasoned and strategic General Manager to lead the opening and day-to-day operations, with the opportunity to grow into a Director of Operations role as the brand expands in the U.S.
Originally founded in London’s Mayfair district, this immersive venue fuses bold, regional cuisine with vibrant music and late-night energy. The concept draws inspiration from the hospitality and culture of Northern India and Pakistan — combining upscale dining, theatrical cocktails, and a lively, DJ-driven nightlife program under one roof.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead all pre-opening efforts: hiring, systems implementation, training, and operational setup
- Manage all aspects of service and guest experience, ensuring excellence across lunch, dinner, and nightlife
- Collaborate closely with culinary, bar, and entertainment teams to maintain brand standards and deliver a unified vision
- Build, mentor, and inspire a high-performing team focused on hospitality, accountability, and culture
- Oversee financial performance including P&L management, budgeting, cost controls, and inventory
- Serve as the local face of the brand and partner with HQ leadership to shape long-term U.S. growth strategy
- Ensure smooth transitions between day-to-night operations and uphold consistency across all touchpoints
- Position yourself for future leadership as the brand grows its presence in the U.S.
Ideal Candidate:
- 5–10+ years of senior-level restaurant or hospitality leadership, ideally in both dining and nightlife venues
- Proven experience with new openings and high-volume, experience-driven concepts
- Deep understanding of operational excellence, financial oversight, and team development
- Culturally aware and excited by globally inspired hospitality, food, and entertainment
- Hands-on, proactive, and a natural leader who thrives in dynamic, guest-facing environments
- Interest in long-term career growth into a Director of Operations position as the U.S. footprint expands
This is a unique opportunity to help launch a major international brand in NYC and shape the future of its U.S. operations.
