Assistant General Manager

ASSISTANT GENERAL MANAGER AND SERVICE MANAGER POSITIONS

Beaumont’s is seeking an Assistant General Manager and two Service Managers to join our opening team. This is a landmark, dual-concept restaurant project in Lincoln Park. Anticipated Start Date February/March 2026.

Beaumont’s is an old-school, tavern-driven American restaurant. As we hope to open a neighborhood institution that stands the test of time and pay homage to the building’s rich history, both the space and concept as a whole lean into a bygone era.

The menu features American classics alongside French and Italian staples, from handmade pastas to charcoal fired steak frites. The beverage program is driven by classic cocktails while featuring predominantly American, French, and Italian wines, all while maintaining a warm and approachable atmosphere at an accessible price point.

The second floor houses the second concept – The Bull Moose, a steakhouse and cocktail lounge. With two fireplaces, big tufted booths, a little bar and dim lighting, The Bull Moose is an intimate Chicago steakhouse, stuck in the past.

Join the Team
With an employee-centric focus, our goal is to build a team as passionate about people as we are. We seek leaders that provide genuine, warm, friendly, and approachable experiences both to our guests AND to our staff. We look for people that need to work in a positive, team-driven environment. We want people that truly care about the guest, about each other, and about creating a great restaurant. An exceptional work ethic and a bright personality are both required and a good sense of humor is encouraged and appreciated.

Management must provide consistent, predictable leadership. The right candidate is a critical thinker that has sound judgment and strong values. They must be reliable, committed, charismatic, and coachable and lead by example every day.
