This Could Be Your Next Step Toward General Management
As the Assistant Manager, you will work closely with the General Manager to lead the restaurant's daily operations and develop a strong, dependable team.
You will not simply be assigned a set of shifts and expected to maintain the status quo. You will be involved in hiring, onboarding, scheduling, coaching and improving the performance of the restaurant.
This role gives you the opportunity to strengthen the skills you will need to become a successful General Manager.
What You'll Be Responsible For Leading opening, closing and manager-on-duty shifts
Hiring and onboarding hourly team members
Creating effective work and training schedules
Coaching employees and providing clear performance feedback
Developing team members and recognizing strong performance
Making sure every shift is properly staffed and positioned for success
Maintaining accurate payroll and employee information
Protecting cash-handling procedures and financial accountability
Supporting food quality, service, cleanliness and safety standards
Resolving guest concerns professionally
Identifying operational problems and putting solutions into action
Supporting a positive, respectful and accountable work environment
The Manager Who Will Thrive Here You are the kind of manager who notices what needs to be done and takes action.
You do not wait for someone else to solve every problem.
You communicate clearly, stay organized and know how to keep your team focused during a busy shift.
You understand that accountability matters-but so does taking the time to train, coach and recognize people.
The strongest candidates will bring: Three or more years of restaurant or retail management experience
Experience leading hourly employees in a fast-paced environment
Confidence opening, closing and running shifts independently
Strong coaching, communication and problem-solving skills
The ability to manage changing priorities without losing focus
Experience with scheduling, onboarding or employee documentation
Comfort learning and using restaurant technology
Availability to work days, evenings and weekends
A high school diploma or equivalent
A valid driver's license
New restaurant opening experience is helpful but not required.
