About the job
General Manager | New Concept – 60k Plus Bonus
Lead a High-Energy Team in a Fast-Paced Environment
We are a rapidly expanding, service-oriented brand that thrives on speed, consistency, and a “people-first” culture. We aren’t just selling a product; we are building a community. We are looking for a General Manager who is a high-impact leader, an expert operator, and a culture-builder to oversee daily operations at one of our premier locations. If you are a motivated leader who excels in fast-casual or high-volume environments and loves developing a team, this is the opportunity for you.
The Role
As the General Manager, you are the primary driver of your location’s success. You will be responsible for balancing hands-on “on-the-floor” leadership with the strategic administrative duties required to run a profitable business.
Key Responsibilities:
Operational Excellence: Maintain rigorous standards for service speed, product quality, and facility cleanliness.
Talent Development: Recruit, hire, and mentor a high-energy team. You will be responsible for performance management and building a leadership pipeline.
Financial Oversight: Manage the P&L, including labor costs, inventory control, and COGS to ensure maximum profitability.
Customer Experience: Ensure every guest receives efficient, friendly, and high-quality service that encourages repeat business.
Compliance: Oversee all safety, health, and security procedures to ensure a safe environment for both staff and guests.
Compensation & Benefits
Base Salary: $57,000 – $60,000 per year (depending on experience).
Performance Bonus: $8,000 – $10,000 annual bonus potential tied to key performance indicators (KPIs).
Benefits: Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.
Growth: We are a growing organization with a strong “promote-from-within” philosophy for multi-unit and regional roles.
Time Off: Competitive Paid Time Off (PTO) and holiday flexibility.
What’s in it for you?
Predictable Scheduling: While retail leadership requires flexibility, we prioritize consistent scheduling to help you maintain a life outside of work.
Empowered Autonomy: We hire experts to run our businesses. You’ll have the support of a regional team but the freedom to lead your location as if it were your own.
No “Take Home” Stress: We focus on efficient systems so that when you’re off the clock, you’re actually off. No constant pings or midnight emergencies.
A Culture of Respect: Join a leadership team where your voice is heard, your boundaries are respected, and your growth is a primary objective.
Who You Are
Experienced: 2+ years of management experience in a high-volume QSR, fast-casual, or retail environment.
Results-Oriented: You have a proven track record of hitting financial targets and managing labor and food/product costs.
Natural Leader: You lead by example and are comfortable managing a diverse, energetic team in a high-pressure setting.
Adaptable: You thrive in a fast-moving business and can pivot quickly to solve operational challenges.
Communication Pro: You have excellent interpersonal skills and can effectively communicate with both your team and upper management.
