    Jax Fish House & Oyster Bar is hiring for a talented Assistant General Manager and passionate service professional to join our team!

    Are you the kind of leader who can glide through chaos like it’s a dance floor? A hospitality hero with Jedi-level calm? A vibe curator who can turn a dining room into a memory-making machine?

    If you’re answering yep, that’s me, keep reading — you might be our next Assistant General Manager.

    WHO WE ARE

    Jax is inspired by the legendary fish houses of the East, West, and Gulf shores, we’re all about big laughs, bright flavors, clattering pans, shaken cocktails, and moments you want to replay on the ride home.

    We’re a neighborhood seafood bar with a pulse — rocks popping, drinks sipping, stories flying. It’s a place you join for a shift and somehow never want to leave.

    WHO YOU ARE

    You’re a selfless hospitalitarian (yeah, it’s a word here). You lead with purpose, communicate with clarity, and bring the kind of energy that lifts a room. Your management style? Smart, compassionate, and cool under pressure. Your service philosophy? Fine-dining precision meets family-dinner familiarity.

    Basically: you make excellence feel effortless.

    WHAT YOU'LL DO

    Lead your crew with the kind of confidence that inspires and the kindness that keeps people around.

    Build a guest experience that feels like magic — consistent, elevated, unforgettable.

    Be the house expert in wine, beer, spirits, cocktails, and flex your teaching muscles. (Somm cert = bragging rights.)

    Know food like it’s a second language — techniques, flavors, regions, pairings, all of it.

    Drive results in sales, service, training, quality, cleanliness, and vibes.

    Help create a workspace where people want to work, grow, laugh, and high-five.

    WHAT YOU BRING

    2+ years in management/supervision in a full-service restaurant.

    2+ years on the floor (server, bartender, captain — you’ve done the dance).

    Working knowledge of POS/Toast, scheduling tools, spreadsheets, G-Suite, and the digital nuts and bolts.

    ServSafe Manager & TIPS certified (or willing to become certified — we’ve got you).

    Physical readiness to lift, bend, carry, sprint, and handle the “whoa that’s hot!” stuff.

    Availability on nights, weekends, holidays — hospitality never sleeps.

    Integrity, curiosity, humility, guts, and the spark to be world famous in your craft.

    THE VIBE

    If you crave a role where your leadership matters, where your voice is heard, and where your passion for people and food can go full throttle.

    This isn’t just a job. It’s a scene. A community. A wave worth riding.

    What you can expect:

    Competitive Salary ($72,000 - $75,000)

    Sick Pay

    2 Weeks Vacation

    Annual Profit Share

    Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
