Front of House Manager - Gecko Hospitality

Hey there, pizza lovers! Nestled in the heart of Carrboro, we're a hometown restaurant dishing out mouth-watering Neapolitan pizza and rustic wood-fired dishes. Wash it all down with local beers, fine wines, our own house cocktails, or indulge in our house-made gelato. Our secret? Quality ingredients from both local farms and Italy itself. With our recent expansion, we can now welcome 70 guests and also include a cool 30-person covered patio.

Now, we're on the lookout for a spirited individual with experience managing front of house operations of bustling, full-service restaurants. Your key role?
