The Restaurant

Berenjak is named after the handfuls of brightly coloured, toasted rice eaten as a snack at funfairs in Persia.
Wherever you visit Berenjak, you can expect to be immersed in Irans rich cultural history. At Soho, you can find our reinterpretation of the hole-in-the-wall kabab houses that line the streets of Tehran, whereas in Borough, the Berenjak Townhouse journeys out of the centre of Tehran and into the rural foothills of the Alborz mountains which surround the city.

As Assistant General Manager, you will be responsible for:

  • Overseeing a large restaurant team and ensuring the running of a smooth service
  • Welcoming and attending to guests with an exceptional level of care and service, ensuring that they leave with a positive and memorable experience;
  • Inspiring, motivating and training waiting staff to deliver the highest levels of service;
  • Carrying out all opening and closing procedures.

The successful Assistant General Manager will have:

  • Previous experience as an Assistant General Manager or Restaurant Manager ready to take on more responsibility;
  • Warm and welcoming persona, along with a hands-on approach to work and impeccable attention to detail;
  • Proven ability to lead, train and inspire a team;
  • Passion for hospitality and a good knowledge of food and beverage;

Eagerness to learn and develop your career within an award-winning restaurant group.

Benefits & Culture

Our team is the most important part of our business, translating our passion for genuine hospitality to our guests every day. We are proud to work with industry-leading talent and recognise the importance of offering our teams the tools, guidance and experience necessary to build confidence and grow.
