New Location:2197 Bloor Street West, Toronto
$45,000 to $50,000 guaranteed salary + projected $45,000+ section tips
Full-time | 40 hours across five shifts | Opening September 2026
Help open and lead our second location
850 Degrees is opening in Bloor West, and we're looking for a hands-on Assistant Manager to help build the front-of-house operation from opening day onward.
This is an opportunity to be part of the opening leadership team, help establish the service culture and put strong operating habits in place from the beginning. You'll have real responsibility, direct access to ownership and the support of an established restaurant whose original Long Branch location has earned a loyal neighbourhood following.
We're an independent, owner-operated stone-fired pizzeria with plans to grow carefully. The leaders who help make Bloor successful will be the first people considered for future Restaurant Manager, General Manager and multi-location opportunities.
How the role works
This is a working Assistant Manager position, not an office job.
You'll normally work five shifts per week, leading service while carrying a section and earning the tips from that section. Administrative work, coaching and shift reporting are handled around service, during pre-shift, post-shift and quieter periods.
When you carry a section, you are still a leader in the room: setting the pace, watching the whole floor and stepping in before small problems become large ones.
This structure gives you a guaranteed management salary without requiring you to give up the guest interaction and serving income that make restaurant work rewarding.
What you'll own
- Leading daily shifts with control of pace, energy, cleanliness and hospitality
- Supporting the recruiting, onboarding and training of the opening front-of-house team
- Upholding opening, closing, service and guest-recovery standards
- Coaching employees clearly, fairly and consistently during service
- Managing cash controls, daily reporting and shift communication
- Building strong menu, wine and feature knowledge across the team
- Increasing sales through genuine hospitality and confident recommendations
- Resolving guest concerns professionally and protecting long-term relationships
- Maintaining clear communication between the floor, kitchen and management
- Flagging operating problems early and helping solve them
What success looks like
During the opening period, you have helped train a dependable team, reinforced clear routines and set the standard for what good service looks like on every shift you run.
Within 12 months, you are running shifts confidently without management needing to check every detail. Your shifts are organized, reporting is accurate, guests are being looked after and performance issues are addressed rather than avoided.
The minimum bar
To be considered, your experience must include:
- At least two years in a busy, full-service restaurant
- At least one year leading restaurant shifts as a supervisor, key holder, shift leader or Assistant Manager
- Direct responsibility for opening or closing, staff direction, guest recovery and cash procedures
- Experience helping train or coach front-of-house employees
- The confidence to lead a complete shift when the Restaurant Manager and ownership are not present
- Availability for evenings, weekends and holidays
- Smart Serve certification by your first scheduled shift
- Legal authorization to work in Canada
A formal management title is not required. However, serving experience without responsibility for the overall shift will not be enough for this position.
Strong assets
- Experience opening a new restaurant
- Italian food, wine or beverage knowledge
- Toast POS, Push Operations or restaurant-reporting experience
- Food Handler certification
- Experience improving sales, staff retention or guest-satisfaction results
This role probably isn't right for you if
- You are looking for an office-based management position
- You have not yet been accountable for an entire restaurant shift
- You are uncomfortable carrying a serving section
- You cannot consistently work evenings and weekends
- You prefer to pass difficult employee or guest situations to management
- You are looking for a short-term position rather than a restaurant to build
Compensation and opportunity
- $45,000 to $50,000 guaranteed annual salary
- $45,000+ projected annual section tips
- $90,000+ expected total annual earnings
- Approximately 40 hours across five shifts
- Direct working relationship with the Restaurant Manager and ownership
- Opportunity to help shape a new restaurant from the beginning
- Clear path toward future Restaurant Manager and General Manager roles
