Swamp Dawg Restaurant Management Group is a growing hospitality company based in Central Florida, operating a variety of restaurant concepts ranging from fast-casual to full-service dining, entertainment, and community-driven experiences.
We are looking for a highly organized, dependable, and proactive Administrative Project Coordinator to join our team and help support the day-to-day coordination, communication, and organization behind our growing companies and development projects. Our office is based in Weirsdale, Florida. We currently operate businesses throughout Marion, Pasco, and Hernando Counties and are continuing to grow into additional markets throughout Central Florida.
At SDRMG, no two days look exactly the same. We operate in a fast-paced environment where hospitality, creativity, growth, development, and problem-solving all intersect. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, thrives in organized chaos, communicates well with people, and takes pride in helping projects and businesses move forward efficiently.
This position works closely with ownership and leadership on a wide range of administrative, operational, and development-related projects. One day may involve organizing office projects and vendor communication, while another could involve helping coordinate permits, preparing project documents, visiting future restaurant sites, or assisting with company initiatives and growth opportunities.
We are looking for someone who is adaptable, solution-oriented, detail-focused, and willing to step in wherever needed to help support a growing hospitality company behind the scenes.
This is not a restaurant management position and is not focused on daily restaurant floor operations. Instead, this role serves as a key organizational and administrative support position helping ownership, leadership, and projects stay aligned and moving forward.
