The Role

It’s fitting that our restaurant is named after Mexico’s most popular toast, because at Arriba Abajo, bringing people together is at the heart of everything we do. And we do it seamlessly with service, views, experiences, and tastes that are a cut above the rest. From Oaxaca to the Yucatan, we guide each and every party on a journey between Mexico’s coasts. From raising a glass of something deliciously fresh to partying poolside with the Austin skyline in view — we are the place for seamless group outings with service and offerings that never miss a beat.

Located in Downtown Austin, in the heart of the music and ever-changing culinary scene, Arriba Abajo’s General Manager plays an integral part of leading the vision of our restaurant’s cantina-themed style. The General Manager reports to the Regional Director of Restaurant Operations for Hyatt’s Lifestyle Independent Restaurant Group as well as the Hotel Manager.

Arriba Abajo is situated inside the Thompson and Tommie Austin, a part of Hyatt Hotels. This is not your traditional “Hotel Restaurant”. Arriba Abajo fosters and environment where everyone works within a manner that is consistent with an independent owner\operator restaurant in partnership with the hotel.

Supervisors possess strong leadership, communication and relationship skills. They are expected to support senior leadership by developing and assuming basic management responsibilities. This role leads other associates by coaching, giving direction and may include training, scheduling, payroll and interviewing. Restaurant Supervisors must demonstrate fundamental food and beverage knowledge and serve as the liaison between culinary and restaurant operations. This position plays a significant role in the overall outlet performance, which includes product quality and service standards.
