Fiesta del Asado is looking for an exceptional, people-focused General Manager to lead our Birmingham restaurant.

Part of the award-winning Lasan Group, Fiesta del Asado is a vibrant Argentine-inspired restaurant and cocktail bar known for quality food, warm hospitality and memorable guest experiences.

This is not an office-based management role. We are looking for a visible, energetic leader who thrives on the restaurant floor—welcoming guests, developing the team and leading every service from the front.

The role:

As General Manager, you will take ownership of the restaurant’s people, performance and guest experience. You will create a positive, accountable culture in which the team feels supported, standards remain consistently high and every guest receives genuine hospitality.

You will:

• Be present and visible throughout service, setting the standard for the team.
• Build genuine relationships with guests and create memorable experiences.
• Recruit, train, coach and develop a confident, knowledgeable team.
• Lead effective briefings and deploy the team accurately for every service.
• Create a positive working culture built around accountability, teamwork and pride.
• Maintain exceptional standards across food, drink, service and presentation.
• Take ownership of sales, labour, stock, costs and overall restaurant performance.
• Use guest feedback and commercial results to identify opportunities for improvement.
• Work closely with the kitchen and senior leadership team.
• Bring energy, ideas and initiative to the continued development of Fiesta del Asado.

About you:

You will be an experienced hospitality leader who genuinely enjoys working with guests and developing people.

Our ideal General Manager will:

• Have proven experience as a General Manager or in a comparable senior hospitality role.
• Be passionate about food, drink and outstanding hospitality.
• Be a natural host who is happiest leading from the restaurant floor.
• Inspire, engage and hold people accountable while maintaining a supportive culture.
• Remain calm, professional and focused during demanding services.
• Demonstrate excellent communication, organisation and problem-solving skills.
• Have strong commercial awareness and experience managing sales, labour, stock, budgets and cost controls.
• Understand food safety, licensing and health and safety responsibilities.
• Take a hands-on, proactive approach and continually look for ways to improve.
• Embrace our values of Ownership, Conscientiousness and Forward Thinking.

What we offer:

• A total package of £45,000–£50,000, including service charge
• The potential for additional KPI related bonus.
• A rewarding bonus structure linked to clear KPIs.
• A structured development path within an ambitious hospitality group.
• The opportunity to contribute to future projects and new restaurant openings.
• An additional bonus for every completed year of service.
• The autonomy to lead your restaurant, supported by an experienced Head Office team.
• The opportunity to make a genuine impact on the experience of both our guests and our people.

Lasan Group has established itself as one of the UK’s most innovative and exciting hospitality brands. Driven by an adventurous spirit and an unwavering commitment to quality, we create original, award-winning dining experiences that quicken the heart, stir the soul and make the taste buds dance.

Our continued success is only possible because of our people, whom we are proud to call part of the family.
