About the job

General Manager – Quick-Service Restaurant $57,000–$60,000 Base + Bonus + Benefits

Some restaurants need a manager. This one needs a leader who’s ready to run the show. We’re a high-volume quick-service operation backed by a well-known national brand, and we’re looking for a General Manager who treats the restaurant like it’s theirs — because in every way that matters, it is. You’ll have full ownership of daily operations: the team, the numbers, the guest experience, all of it. This works best for someone who’s already proven themselves as a GM or strong AGM and is ready for a shop where accountability runs both ways — we give you the autonomy to run your restaurant, and we expect you to deliver.

Your Day-to-Day

Full P&L accountability — food cost, labor, inventory, and controllable expenses

Hiring, training, and developing a management bench and hourly crew

Owning guest experience, speed of service, and food quality standards

Driving food safety and cleanliness compliance across every shift

Recruiting and retaining a team that wants to stay

Supporting local marketing initiatives to grow sales

Building a culture where accountability and teamwork actually mean something

What You Bring to the Table

2+ years of restaurant management experience, quick-service or fast-casual preferred

Prior GM or AGM experience

Confidence managing high-volume operations without losing your cool

Solid grasp of labor, food cost, and inventory fundamentals

Clear, direct communication and sharp problem-solving instincts

A leadership style built on ownership, not just oversight

The Offer

$57,000–$60,000 base salary

Bonus potential

Full benefits package

Real room to grow within an established restaurant group

If you’re ready to run your own restaurant instead of just managing someone else’s, let’s have a conversation.
