Flavours Restaurant jobs in Edmonton, AB

We're Growing!

Lead Something Worth Leading

At Bodega Tapas Bar, we're entering an exciting new phase of growth—and we're looking for exceptional leaders to grow with us.

Bodega isn't your average restaurant. For many guests, it's a destination. As Edmonton's premier Spanish tapas experience, we've built our reputation on bold flavours, an exceptional wine program, and unforgettable hospitality that keeps guests coming back.

Our Ellerslie location is fast-paced, high-volume, and built around high standards. We're looking for a Restaurant Manager who thrives in that environment and is ready to make an impact.

More importantly, this isn't just an opportunity to manage a restaurant—it's an opportunity to build a long-term career. As part of a growing hospitality group with multiple concepts and ambitious expansion plans, there are significant opportunities for advancement, leadership development, and future growth within our organization.

We don't just serve tapas. We create experiences. If that resonates with you, keep reading.

THE OPPORTUNITY

We're seeking a results-driven, hospitality-obsessed Restaurant Manager to lead our Ellerslie operation.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who leads from the floor—not from behind a desk. Someone who understands that culture, consistency, accountability, and coaching are what separate good restaurants from great ones.

If you get excited about building great teams, delivering exceptional guest experiences, and driving strong financial results, you'll fit right in.

Operations & Guest Experience

• Lead a seamless, high-volume service operation with an unwavering commitment to quality and consistency
• Champion a guest-first culture where every visit exceeds expectations
• Maintain exceptional standards across food quality, cleanliness, and health & safety compliance
• Resolve guest concerns with professionalism, empathy, and urgency

Leadership & Team Development

• Recruit, onboard, coach, and develop a high-performing front- and back-of-house team
• Create schedules that balance guest experience with effective labour management
• Partner closely with our Head Chef to foster a culture of collaboration, accountability, and pride in execution
• Conduct meaningful performance conversations that inspire growth and development

Financial Performance

• Own key operational metrics including labour costs, food costs, waste reduction, and profitability targets
• Analyze daily, weekly, and monthly financial reporting to identify opportunities for continuous improvement
• Collaborate with ownership and regional leadership on marketing initiatives, promotions, and revenue-driving strategies
• Ensure accurate cash handling, inventory controls, and payroll administration

WHO YOU ARE

• 3–5+ years of progressive restaurant management experience, ideally in a full-service, high-volume, or concept-driven environment
• A proven leader who earns trust, builds loyalty, and develops strong teams
• Financially savvy, with a solid understanding of P&L management, labour controls, and food cost performance
• Calm under pressure, decisive when it matters, and always committed to learning and improving
• Passionate about hospitality, food, and beverage; experience with Spanish cuisine or wine is considered an asset
• Legally entitled to work in Canada

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

• $50,000–$65,000 annual salary, based on experience
• Performance-based bonus program
• The autonomy to truly lead your operation—not simply manage a checklist
• Ongoing leadership development and mentorship
• The opportunity to join a growing hospitality company with multiple concepts and clear pathways for advancement
• A passionate leadership team that values operators and invests in their success
• A unique brand with a loyal guest following and the opportunity to leave your mark
