ABOUT EDO-ko

We are a people-first company built on heart, accountability, and high standards. We look for caring team players with strong communication skills who put customers, teammates, and career path ahead of personal agendas. Skills can be taught; character cannot. Now in our 40th year, we are pioneers in our category, with innovations that have shaped industry standards and earned a loyal following. We expect commitment, resilience, and a strong work ethic, and we reward those who help us grow a business built for longevity—one that creates value for our community, our customers, and our team.

LEAD the Experience. INSPIRE the Team. RAISE the Bar.

We're looking for a agile, hands-on Dining Room Manager who brings more than operational expertise to the table. We want a confident leader with a passion for hospitality, a creative mindset, and the ability to inspire a team to deliver exceptional guest experiences. We're also looking for someone who will eventually outgrow this role and advance into other opportunities within the ecosystem of our business.

What You'll Bring to the Table:

Lead with confidence: Inspire, coach, and develop a high-performing front-of-house team through strong leadership, transparent expectations, and accountability.

Champion exceptional hospitality: Set the standard for memorable guest experiences through genuine engagement, attention to detail, and outstanding service.

Drive innovation: Challenge the status quo, identify opportunities, and introduce creative ideas that continuously improve service, efficiency, and profitability.

Navigate change and conflict: Lead with emotional intelligence, sound judgment, and the ability to resolve challenges, build trust, and unite people around shared goals.

Own the floor:



Take charge of daily dining room operations, ensuring seamless service, strong teamwork, and effective coordination between front and back of house.

Develop talent: Recruit, train, mentor, and empower employees to grow professionally, take ownership, and consistently exceed expectations.

Deliver results: Manage labour, sales performance, operational costs, and guest feedback while identifying opportunities to grow revenue and strengthen the business.

What We Offer You – More Than Just a Job

Your ambition shouldn't have a ceiling, and neither should your career. We offer a results-driven bonus program that rewards your success in growing sales, optimizing labour costs, and managing inventory effectively. But the opportunity goes well beyond the dining room. With new locations, expanding catering operations, and exciting proprietary business initiatives on the horizon, we're looking for someone who wants to grow with us. You'll have the opportunity to contribute ideas, influence how we operate, and take on broader leadership responsibilities across different areas of the business. We don't believe in glass ceilings. We believe in creating opportunities for people who demonstrate the initiative, leadership, and results to earn them.

What We're Looking For:

Minimum 5 years of restaurant industry experience, including 2 years managing a full-service restaurant. Proven leadership in a high-volume environment, strong communication and problem-solving skills, proficiency with restaurant technology and reporting tools.

If you're a natural leader who thrives on challenges, embraces change, and believes great hospitality starts with a great team, we'd love to hear from you.

THE ENVIRONMENT
