About the Role

Mondo is a gelato–coffee–cocktail bar built on craft, curiosity, and a deep respect for ingredients. We’re looking for a Front of House Manager who is both operationally sharp and creatively attuned — someone who can hold down the day-to-day with precision, while also driving events, tastings, and off-site collaborations that shape how people experience the brand.

This role is hands-on, people-first, and suited for someone who thrives in a boutique, detail-oriented environment.

• Lead and participate in service — scooping, brewing, batching simple drinks, handling the till, hosting guests.

Team Leadership

• Supervise and mentor the FOH team through positive, clear communication.
• Train new staff in technical skills, service standards, and Mondo’s product knowledge.
• Foster a culture of hospitality, accountability, and teamwork.

• Coordinate logistics, staff planning, packing lists, and product quantities for events.
• Work with the team on creative presentation, set-ups, and ingredient showcasing.
• Support content creation when required (behind-the-scenes, setup shots, day-of event documentation).

Guest Experience & Service Excellence

• Maintain a warm, attentive service experience that reflects Mondo’s brand values.
• Resolve guest feedback with professionalism and initiative.
• Anticipate guest needs and read the floor to maintain flow and ambience.

Sales & Performance

• Review daily/weekly sales reports and identify insights to optimise product mix, staffing, and service flow.
• Track sell-through rates of flavours, pastries, drinks, and suggest adjustments based on real data.
• Support the team in meeting boutique-level sales targets.

Requirements

• Experience in café, gelato, bar, or boutique hospitality environments.
• Strong organisational and administrative skills.
• Confident leading a small team with empathy.
• Comfortable with both service work and back-end operations.
• Interest in flavours, ingredients, and creative food culture.
• Ability to work evenings, weekends, and peak periods.
