Join the team at Scoundrel
Scoundrel is modern French dining, Michelin-starred and led by Chef Joe Cash on Main Street in downtown Greenville. The food is approachable. The execution is flawless. The service is genuine, and the hospitality is real.
We are looking for an Assistant General Manager who’s equal parts hospitality brain and floor presence: effortlessly cool under pressure, deeply capable, and always in service of the room.
You’ll support the GM in building a stronger team and an even sharper service, so every night feels intentional, seamless, and unmistakably Scoundrel.
Who you are
You’re hospitality-first with serious service chops and real management experience in high-quality restaurant operations. You’re dependable, motivated, and team-minded. You build trust through clear communication and thoughtful service, both for guests and for the people working beside you.
You lead by example. You challenge the team, celebrate the wins, and don’t let details slide.

- Handle issues with grace, speed, and follow-through.
Communication

Day-to-day leadership
