General Manager — Diamond Slice, København (Nørrebro)

Do you thrive in a fast-paced hospitality culture, love sourdough pizza at the highest level, and have the operational backbone to drive a fast-growing restaurant brand?

Since opening at Blågårds Plads, Diamond Slice has redefined New York-style pizza in Copenhagen. With two well-visited neighborhood locations in Nørrebro (Blågårds Plads and Tagensvej 79), a growing catering business, and a significant footprint at Roskilde Festival and summer events, we are now looking for a sharp and decisive General Manager.

As General Manager, you will lead the business side of Diamond Slice. In close partnership with our Operations Manager and team leaders, you will establish solid systems, drive FOH performance, and ensure that our locations run smoothly, efficiently, and autonomously.

Key Areas and Responsibilities

• Business Operations & Systems:
• Drive daily business operations across locations in close partnership with our Operations Manager.
• Build, optimize, and maintain reliable daily routines, systems, and division of responsibility within the team.
• Manage ordering routines, inventory, and stocktaking, as well as step in to cover for our Operations Manager when needed.
• Identify bottlenecks in time and execute practical solutions proactively.
• FOH Leadership & Hospitality:
• Lead, mentor, and inspire FOH employees and shift leaders.
• Take full ownership of FOH scheduling and ensure that labor targets are consistently met.
• Recruit, onboard, and train team members to Diamond Slice's service standards.
• Handle guest feedback, customer inquiries, and daily communication.
• Catering, Festivals & Growth:

• Financial Management & Reporting:
• Follow up on daily sales, labor costs, and margins to identify optimization opportunities.
• Prepare weekly labor and performance reports ahead of management meetings.
• Report operations, staffing, and strategic proposals continuously to the ownership/board.

• Documented Experience: 2+ years of leadership experience from fast-paced restaurant operations (e.g., as General Manager, Assistant GM, or Operations Manager).
• Systems & Numbers: Experience with scheduling systems, POS/inventory management, and keeping labor percentages within budget.
• Hands-on Leadership: You lead by example during busy periods, maintain calm under pressure, and set a high standard for hospitality.
• Languages: Professional level in English is required (international team). Danish at a conversational or fluent level is a clear advantage regarding local administration and supplier dialogue.

What We Offer

• A defining leadership role in one of Copenhagen's most recognized pizza concepts.
• Real mandate and influence over company processes, team culture, and business growth.
• A supportive and close-knit team culture with high energy and a great focus on craftsmanship.
