General Manager - Bells & Whistles (Fraser)
Lead a restaurant. Build a team. Shape a culture.
Bells & Whistles Isn't Just Another Sports Bar.
We're a high-volume neighbourhood restaurant built around incredible hospitality, unforgettable game days, arcade nostalgia, community events, and a team that genuinely enjoys working together. Whether it's a packed playoff game, World Cup watch party, trivia night, Drag brunch, or a regular Tuesday afternoon, our goal is always the same: create an experience that guests can't wait to come back for.
Alongside unforgettable hospitality, we're proud to serve an exceptional selection of local craft beer and a menu of elevated comfort food that proves burgers, wings and fries can be done remarkably well.
We're looking for an exceptional General Manager to lead our Fraser location.
This role is about far more than scheduling shifts and running service. It's about building culture, developing people, creating systems, driving financial performance, and leading from the front. You'll work closely with ownership to continue growing one of Vancouver's most exciting hospitality concepts while inspiring a talented team to do their best work every day.
What You'll Be Responsible For…
If you're passionate about hospitality, leadership and building great teams, we'd love to hear from you.
