Fairmont St Andrews are looking for an ambitious and passionate Restaurant Manager to take the lead at one of the most exciting F&B outlets. This a restaurant with two very different personalities and you’ll be at the heart of both.

By day, it’s a golfer’s paradise. Great food, relaxed hospitality and the perfect place to refuel before or after a round on our championship courses.

By night the restaurant comes alive as an award-winning AA Rosette Steak and Seafood destination, showcasing local quality produce and exceptional service.

We’re looking for someone who can lead both sides of the experience and create a restaurant that guests want to return to, whether they're here for their first tee time or their final course.
