Job Overview

RESTAURANT  MANAGER JOB DESCRIPTION
We are building a team of people that want to be the very best at what they do.
We are the all-in type. We are very direct and want the same from our team. We don't have time for anything else. We are real and we connect with our guests and everyone that works here. We are looking for a Restaurant Manager that is able to create this strong connection with guests and staff.
This is a special place and people traveled a long way to come here, they have anticipated what this hotel might be like and how it would make them feel.What the food, the drinks would taste like, and how special it would be. We want a Restaurant Manager that will push the limits of accommodating our guests and team to make magic happen for others.
We will be serving scratch food, organic focused, vegan options with an incredibly interesting beverage program that also offers a shot and a beer.
We would like someone with incredible taste - a wide and broad knowledge base about high end offerings, and everything in between….but never pretentious.  We are very down to earth and are looking for someone that can carry that in their management style, while at the same time being able to carry on in detail about the most esoteric of foods or beverages.
Leadership and Systems:
We are looking for a Restaurant Manager that is excited to lead a team of others that are also like minded and excited about what they do.
We would like to see experience OPENING a restaurant as this can be uniquely challenging and extremely rewarding to build a team.
We would like you to be excited about using the latest software and technology to keep things running smoothly.
Events
This is the place people will travel to for their special events and we need a Restaurant Manager that works closely with the Chef, Bar Manager and GM to create special packages, moments and accommodations for guests. We will also offer you an unbelievable repertoire of special events, secret bars, secret concerts and mysterious invitations to offer guests.
This will be a place for the unknown - the unexpected -  if you have all the experience that you can thrive in this type of management role, but pushing the limits and going way outside the box excites you, then this might be the position for you.
We are truly looking for bad asses that are incredible at what they do but are not looking for an ordinary job, or ordinary life for that matter.
This job will be more than a job, its truly a community out here and we can’t wait to meet you!

We Are Human Kind
Intentional Hospitality
This is not a regular job, and we are not a regular company.
We Are Human Kind is our name.
We are a new hospitality group, forming around the restoration and rejuvenation of a small, magical, high desert community nestled in the bouldery mountains of San Diego’s Sonoran Desert along Old Highway 80. Live music, art, hospitality, and community are our heartbeat.
We are dreamers and we are doers.
We are looking for others who feel the same calling for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build something meaningful, something real, and something that reverberates through the generations.
OUR CULTURE
Our culture encourages the strange and unusual.
We see beauty in imperfection.
We like dust, we like patina, we like age and we like rust.
Our culture is high fidelity - we celebrate humanity in all of its forms - all of the highs and lows of our natural human rhythms, backgrounds, experiences, and times together.
We accept that life is ups, downs, easy days and hard days - and we wouldn’t want it any other way.
We are not easily offended and we laugh a lot.
We put everything we have into everything we do.
We do not go halfway.
As the owners and designers, there is no detail we do not care about.
We care about the way our spaces make others feel and the way our food and our drinks convey our intentions.
We are relentless, we are problem solvers, the show must go on.
We approach all aspects of this endeavor from a place of aspiration.
We focus on the human experience and our goal is to overwhelm our fellow humans with spaces and experiences that feel effortless and natural.
