About Us

We are a brand-new, premier sports entertainment venue featuring 5 state-of-the-art indoor golf simulator bays and a high-energy bar/lounge. We combine top-tier golf technology with exceptional food, craft drinks, and guest service. We are looking for an entrepreneurial, tech-savvy leader to launch and grow our day-to-day operations.

Position Overview

As the General Manager, you will bridge the worlds of high-volume hospitality and recreation tech—managing the bar, leading the front-of-house team, driving corporate events, and ensuring our simulator bays run flawlessly. The ideal candidate requires minimal supervision and thrives in an autonomous, fast-paced startup environment.

Core Responsibilities
  • Tech & Operations Management: Oversee the daily calibration and troubleshooting of 5 simulator bays (launch monitors, PCs, and projectors). Act as the first line of defense for basic technical glitches to keep bays operational.
  • Hospitality & Bar Leadership: Manage all food and beverage operations, including inventory control, menu management, supplier relations, and strict compliance with NYS liquor laws.
  • Revenue & Event Growth: Build, market, and run weekday golf leagues, local tournaments, and private corporate parties to maximize bay occupancy.
  • Team Building: Recruit, train, schedule, and lead a tight-knit team of bartenders, servers, and guest hosts. Maintain a high-energy, customer-first service culture.
  • Financial Accountability: Manage daily cash handling, labor percentages, F&B margins, and bay utilization rates. Report performance directly to ownership.
Required Qualifications & Experience
  • Experience: 3 to 5 years of hospitality, restaurant, or entertainment management experience (Assistant GM or GM level).
  • F&B Knowledge: Proven track record running a profitable bar or sports lounge, including inventory tracking and labor cost controls.
  • Tech Comfort: High comfort level with technology, PC software troubleshooting, and audio-visual equipment. Experience with launch monitors (TrackMan, Uneekor, Full Swing) or sports entertainment tech is a massive plus.
  • Autonomy: Absolute capability to open and close the venue independently, handle emergencies, and manage vendor relationships with minimal owner oversight.
  • Certifications: TIPS or ServSafe certification required (or must be obtained within 30 days of hire).
What We Offer
  • Competitive base salary with performance bonuses tied to bay occupancy, event bookings, and margin targets.
  • Paid time off and professional development opportunities.
  • The unique opportunity to shape the culture and operations of a brand-new local hotspot.
Pay: $60,000.00 - $70,000.00 per year

Application Question(s):
  • Briefly describe your direct experience managing financial operations, such as Profit and Loss (P&L) statements, inventory control, and labor costs.
Experience:
  • managing a high-volume bar, restaurant, or sports venue: 3 years (Preferred)
