General Manager - Cafe / Restaurant

GENERAL MANAGER

THE HISTORY

Lead the incredible team at ST KILDA’S MOST ICONIC pizza and bar restaurant.

Banff has been part of St Kilda’s famous Fitzroy Street since 1942. What is today a trendy apartment building, back in the day, 145 Fitzroy Street was used as an army barrack by American and Canadian soldiers during World War II, and what is now known as The Banff Restaurant, was then used as a galley to cook their meals.

The existing custodians of Café Banff have been lucky enough to only have had 4 General Managers take care of this wonderful and iconic St. Kilda local over the last 15 years.

After 3 years at the helm, the departure of our current leader leaves a very rare opportunity, for someone to claim the worthy position of General Manager of The Banff Café St Kilda.
