Poon's at Somerset House

Assistant General Manager

London On-site Front of House

Assistant General Manager – Full Time | Poon’s at Somerset House

Poon’s is a London institution. Since the 1970s, the Poon family has been serving Cantonese cooking to the city, and today we carry that legacy on at Somerset House: a lively, characterful restaurant built around wind-dried meats, roast duck, wontons and generous sharing plates, set in one of London’s most iconic cultural landmarks.

We’re looking for a full-time Assistant General Manager to work alongside our General Manager in leading the restaurant day to day. You’ll run services from the floor, lead and develop a front-of-house team, and keep standards high across every part of the guest experience. Away from the floor, you’ll take real ownership of the business: rotas and labour control, stock and ordering, cashing up and reporting, compliance, and stepping up to run the site in the GM’s absence.

We’d love to hear from you if you’re an experienced restaurant manager or a strong supervisor ready for the next step, and you lead by example on the floor while keeping a close eye on the numbers. We’re looking for someone who builds great teams, stays composed in a busy, high-volume room, and wants to grow with a much-loved London brand.
