Full Job Description

Mamahuhu is built around the idea that food brings people, communities, and cultures together. Chinese-American food is a perfect example — a cuisine that began in China, evolved in America, and continues to bring people together in joyful, shared moments. We’re here to celebrate that tradition by creating thoughtful new expressions of classic dishes that are fun, nourishing, and absolutely delicious.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for Managers and Supervisors to join our team and help us bring our vision of Chinese-American food to life — one full plate at a time.

About Us

Mamahuhu’s founding team includes Brandon Jew of Mister Jiu’s in San Francisco’s Chinatown and Anmao Sun and Ben Moore of Hunter Gatherer, a farm-to-table restaurant group in Shanghai, China. With experience spanning fine dining to fast casual, China to California, our team is united by a shared love for Chinese-American food and a commitment to sustainability, quality sourcing, and community.

Our mission is simple: to create Happier and Healthier Communities by spreading the joy of Chinese-American fare and tradition.

About the Role

We’re looking for a passionate, positive, and growth-minded General Manager to lead our Mill Valley restaurant. This role owns the entire restaurant — front of house and back of house — from the guest experience up front to the food coming out of the kitchen.

As GM, you’re expected to develop real, working knowledge of how the kitchen runs: prep systems, line service, inventory and ordering, food safety, and kitchen labor and food cost management. Prior restaurant or GM experience is a plus but not a strict requirement — what matters most is a genuine willingness to learn kitchen operations hands-on and lead BOH with the same confidence as FOH.

This also makes the role a great next step for an experienced Kitchen Manager or BOH leader who already knows the kitchen inside and out and is ready to grow into a GM position — building out the FOH, people, and business skills needed to run a full location.

You’ll lead a team of 15–20 people and set the tone for the restaurant experience. We’re looking for someone who is hungry to grow, excited about learning both sides of the house, and energized by making work fun, meaningful, and people-centered.

This is a full-time role based in the San Francisco Bay Area. We offer strong benefits, a supportive and upbeat work culture, and a schedule that promotes long-term success.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Team Leadership

Recruit, train, and mentor a high-performing FOH and BOH team in a culture of care, fun, and accountability
Lead by example, embodying Mamahuhu’s Five Core Values
Oversee daily team logistics: scheduling, timecards, time off, etc. across the whole restaurant
Master every role in the restaurant — front and back of house — to train and uphold team standards

Kitchen & Back of House Operations

Own day-to-day kitchen operations, including prep systems, storage, inventory, and vendor ordering
Ensure food quality and consistency through tastings and regular kitchen walkthroughs
Lead by example on the line during peak service and prep times when needed
Ensure full compliance with food safety and sanitation standards; hold a current Food Manager Certification (or obtain one upon hire)
Partner with the Culinary team on new menu rollouts, recipe updates, and training for kitchen staff

Financial Management

Manage restaurant costs (labor, food, etc.) across FOH and BOH in line with company targets
Hit weekly food and labor cost targets; review and present period-end P&Ls to upper management
Work with the Operations team to control waste, optimize kitchen systems, and improve margins

Facilities & Systems

Maintain and oversee all equipment and facilities, including kitchen equipment
Be proficient in using and troubleshooting restaurant tech systems (POS, BOH, scheduling, etc.)

QUALIFICATIONS
Based in or able to commute within the San Francisco Bay Area
Leadership experience in any industry; restaurant and/or kitchen experience strongly preferred given this role’s BOH responsibilities
Willingness and ability to develop hands-on knowledge of kitchen operations — prep, line, food safety, and kitchen cost management — if not already in place
A people-first mindset with a genuine passion for hospitality
Brings a positive, upbeat energy that makes work fun for the whole team
Detail-oriented, dependable, and solution-focused
Thrives in dynamic environments and embraces learning
Comfortable giving and receiving feedback
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Confident with customer interactions

BENEFITS
Starting salary: $85,000+/year, based on experience, plus up to 15% quarterly bonus potential
75% employer-covered Health, Dental, Vision, and Chiropractic insurance
$1,000 annual wellness stipend
Unlimited sick days + 2 weeks PTO
Employee meals provided during shifts
