Restaurant Team Leader

We are looking for an energetic and driven Full Time Restaurant Team Leader to join us at iasg Restaurant within Blythswood Square Hotel & Spa and embrace your unique, best self to provide our guests with heartfelt human connections!

At iasg, we're more than just a restaurant — we’re a place where stories are shared over plates, where service is personal, and where every guest experience matters. We're looking for a passionate, people-focused Restaurant Team Leader to support our F& B Manager and help us deliver truly memorable moments, every day.

At iasg, we don’t just cook — we celebrate the best of Scotland.
From rich local produce to bold, seasonal flavours, our dishes reflect the creativity, care, and character of our team.

As a Restaurant Team Leader you’ll be 100% you, bringing your authentic personality to everything you do; be the ultimate host, confidently leading yourself and making creative decisions that elevate every interaction; and spark joy, using every tool available to craft meaningful and memorable experiences.

As our Restaurant Team Leader, you’ll play a key role in making iasg an outstanding place to dine and work! Your main responsibilities will include:

• Supporting the F& B Manager in the day-to-day running of the restaurant

• Leading and motivating the team — coaching and mentoring to help them shine in their roles

• Delivering unforgettable guest experiences, and stepping in to handle service recoveries when needed

• Training and onboarding new team members, setting them up for success

• Occasionally supporting the bar team, so experience in a bar environment is a plus!

We’re looking for someone who…

• Has previous experience as a Team Leader, Supervisor, or Assistant Manager in a fast-paced restaurant setting

• Brings a deep passion for food, drink, and genuine hospitality

• Has a flexible schedule — available for a variety of shifts, including evenings and weekends (40 hours/week) between 3-5pm to 12-1am.

• Enjoys mentoring others and has a proven track record of supporting team development

• Is driven, proactive, and focused on creating exceptional results

• Radiates warmth and authenticity, with a natural “can-do” attitude

Joining the Kimpton family isn’t just about providing our guests with excellent service, we also have secured a spot in Fortune’s ‘100 best companies to work for’ 7 times since 2009, and it is no surprises why! We can offer you…

• Financial security - £14.65 per hour (£30, 472 per annum FTE), guaranteed hours, paid overtime, a free meal on shift, paid holidays, subsidised unsocial hour travel support and enhanced sick pay!
