Floor Manager – Nora

Nora is not your typical Turkish restaurant.

Brought to life by brothers Ozgur and Sidar Akyuz,Nora is a refreshing and free-spirited take on Turkish cuisine,built on the vibrancy of Anatolian small plates,the best of British produce and a no-rules,no-dogma approach to creativity.

This is a restaurant where hospitality leads the way,where every dish tells a story of heritage and innovation,and where the energy of Canary Wharf meets the warmth of Istanbul’s kitchens.

About the Role

As Floor Manager,you are the engine of the floor — the person who sets the tone,keeps the energy alive,and ensures every guest leaves feeling they’ve experienced something truly special.

You’ll own the service from briefing to last bill,drive the daily vibe,and lead your team with confidence and warmth. You’ll work closely with the AGM and GM to make sure the service is not just smooth,but electric. You’ll be there for your team — training,developing,and inspiring them every single day.

This is a role for someone who thrives in a busy,people-driven environment,loves the rush of service,and takes real pride in the outcome of every shift.
