Are you a dynamic hospitality leader who thrives on inspiring teams, elevating customer experiences, and driving operational excellence?

Arboretum, Ireland's award-winning, family-run garden and lifestyle destination, is seeking a Hospitality Operations Manager to lead and evolve our café operations across three vibrant locations, with our other two locations being Kilquade, Co. Wicklow and Parnell Street, Dublin 1.

This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of food and hospitality within a business that blends retail, gardens, and community - all while enjoying daytime hours and a values-driven culture.

About the Role

As Hospitality Operations Manager, you'll oversee the strategic and operational performance of our daytime cafés, ensuring they deliver exceptional customer experiences, strong commercial results, and a positive team culture.

You'll lead a team of Café Managers and Head Chefs, empowering them to succeed while focusing on people development, margin management, and innovation.

Key Responsibilities

Leadership & People Development

• Coach and mentor Café Managers, Head Chefs and Team Leads across three sites
• Foster a culture of accountability, motivation, and continuous improvement
• Lead performance management, recruitment, and onboarding processes

• Commercial acumen and experience managing budgets, margins, and KPIs
• Passion for food, customer service, and creating memorable experiences
• Excellent communication, organisation, and problem-solving abilities
• Resilience, adaptability, and a proactive mindset

A culinary background is welcome but not essential - we're looking for a strategic leader who can empower our chefs and elevate our hospitality offering.

Why Join Arboretum?

At Arboretum, we believe cafés should be places of inspiration and connection. We're a forward-thinking, family-run business where your leadership will make a real impact.

We offer:

• A supportive and values-led culture focused on Communication, Commitment, Customer Service, Reputation, and Leadership
• Opportunities for professional development and career progression
• Employee discounts across Arboretum retail and cafés
• Employee Referral bonus scheme and recognition initiatives
• A chance to work in beautiful surroundings with an award-winning Irish brand.

Why This Role Stands Out

This isn't just a hospitality role - it's a leadership opportunity to shape the future of food and customer experience in a unique retail and lifestyle environment. You'll be supported, challenged, and appreciated as part of a passionate team that's redefining daytime hospitality in Ireland.

Ready to lead with purpose and passion? Apply now to join the Arboretum family.
