Evening Restaurant Manager & Gastgeber (m/w/d)

Berlin Warschauer Str.
Full-time
Permanent employee

Your mission

Since we first opened our doors in 2009 as ‘Zum fröhlichen Michel’ in what was then a fledgling neighbourhood on the RAW site, a lot has changed – but our core ethos has remained the same: we create spaces for people to come together. What began as a meeting place for artists, club owners and local residents has developed into a holistic dining concept that now extends far beyond the borders of Berlin.

You’re a passionate host (m/f/d) in our vibrant establishment. You foster the connection between our farm in the Spreewald and our diners in Berlin. Together with an international team, you’ll uphold our traditions whilst bringing the new direction of our evening menu to life.

We’re looking for someone who thrives on culinary and social interactions and makes our guests feel part of a wider community.

What you bring to the role
  • Operational excellence & a hospitality-focused mindset
  • Experience – You have solid leadership experience in upmarket catering or in concept restaurants with high quality standards.

About us

The Michelberger Hotel & Restaurant is a metropolitan oasis of recreation, togetherness and pleasure in the heart of Berlin. Founded and directed by Nadine and Tom Michelberger. The Michelberger includes a regenerative farm in the Spreewald, the ORA restaurant, the Theke Imbiss, the MXPSM spirits manufactory, the PEOPLE Festival and the Fountain of Youth coconut water.

Since 15 years, the Michelberger is a vibrant human centered place serving and hosting people, a social space for the multitude of work and leisure travel occasions. Grown out of Berlin's cultural landscape, the Michelberger is constantly evolving with the people and stories that this hotel life writes.

"Our hotel thrives on small steps, on everyday collaborative creation and on maximum independence. Instead of complaining about the state of the world, politics, our neighbors or large corporations, we start where we can make a difference. In this place, with the people who work with us and who visit us. This is how we shape the present and create a desirable future for ourselves. - By hosting, by enabling experiences, by serving people! " - Nadine and Tom Michelberger
