We're looking for an experienced General Manager to lead a busy, high-energy LGBTQ+ bar and nightlife venue downtown Toronto.
We're all about great music, unforgettable nights, exciting entertainment, and creating a welcoming space where people can relax, celebrate, and be themselves.
Behind every great night is a great team, and we're looking for someone who knows how to bring people together, keep things running smoothly, and make sure both our guests and staff have an amazing experience.
This isn't your typical restaurant management job. We're a lively, high-volume nightlife operation with a passionate team, regular entertainment, special events, and plenty of personality.
You'll work closely with ownership, have a real say in how things are run, and play an important role in shaping what comes next.

- Running the show. Overseeing day-to-day operations and making sure everything from opening to last call runs smoothly.
- Leading the team. Hiring, training, engaging, and supporting bartenders, barbacks, security, and your management team.
- Keeping the business healthy. Managing budgets, labour costs, inventory, sales, and overall profitability.
- Creating great nights. Working with entertainers, community leaders, promoters, and the team to keep events and nightlife programming exciting. Make sure you're comfortable around celebs!
- Being part of the community. Building relationships within Toronto's LGBTQ+ community and helping create a place where people feel connected and welcome.
- Keeping everyone safe. Maintaining a welcoming, respectful environment while ensuring licensing, security, and safety standards are top of mind.
- Bringing fresh ideas. Finding new ways to improve the guest experience, help the business thrive, and serve the community.
Who We're Looking For
We're hoping to find someone who:
- Has at least 3 years of management experience, ideally in busy bars, nightclubs, or nightlife venues.
- Knows how to lead a team, handle a packed Saturday night, and keep their cool when things get hectic.
- Understands the business side of hospitality, including budgets, staffing, inventory, and profitability.
- Is comfortable making decisions, solving problems, and taking ownership of their work.
- Understands and appreciates LGBTQ+ nightlife, culture, and community.
- Enjoys working with people, from regulars and first-time guests to entertainers and fellow team members.
- Is organized, approachable, confident, and knows when to roll up their sleeves.
- Is comfortable working evenings, weekends, and holidays when needed.
- Knows the value of hands on management and strong team culture
What's in It for You?
- Competitive salary, plus performance-based bonuses.
- The opportunity to lead an exciting, high-volume LGBTQ+ nightlife venue.
- A supportive and experienced ownership team that wants your input and ideas.
- The opportunity to develop and lead a strong management team.

Sound Like Your Kind of Place?
We're looking for someone who loves a great night out but knows just how much hard work goes into making one happen.

Send us your resume and a little about yourself. Tell us about the venues you've managed, what you love about nightlife, and why this opportunity caught your attention.
