FOH Manager

Des Moines, IA Full Time
POSTED ON 7/20/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/17/2026

Fuzzy's Taco Shop is seeking an experienced FOH manager. We would love to meet you!

TLDR: This is a closing position. The pay is real. It's a combination of base, tips, and a TON of support from ownership. You MUST have experience and be prepared to multitask in a fast-paced environment. If you do not have managerial experience in a restaurant, preferably with alcohol service, please apply for our Cashier opening. The pay is also great there!

WHO WE ARE:

  • We are a fast-casual restaurant with dine-in and online ordering. We have a full bar, focused on draught beer and margaritas.
  • Our menu is fresh and prepped in-house daily. We are proud of our delicious menu and the variety we offer! We are fast, but we are NOT "fast food".
  • We have loyal guests and high volume, especially during patio weather!
  • Our team is friendly, caring, and team oriented.
  • Our ownership is present, active, and supportive, on a daily basis. We seek to create a positive environment where your work needs are met.
  • We are a drama-free space. We value community, and seek to expand and deepen many branches of the Fuzzy's community. We achieve this by our openness, welcoming vibes, caring instincts, and zesty attitude. We are protective of our culture!
  • We have fun! Seriously! There are unpleasant ways to earn a paycheck, and we are not one!

  • Experience with bartending or bar management is strongly preferred.
  • This position is for closing shifts. We offer 100% closing, or 80% closing if the right person needs a blended / flexible schedule. We close at 10pm Sunday through Thursday., and later on Friday/Saturday.

DUTIES INCLUDE:

  • Be present in the dining room, ensuring guests have a great time and our team is supported

  • Ensure all nightly closing & cleaning is completed (we have checklists to support this)
  • Secure the shop at close, and handle basic office closing of cash drawers
  • Be aware of safe/proper food handling, and regulations around alcohol service
  • You will NOT be asked to handle other managerial duties, such as placing orders, scheduling, running caterings, etc. We want you to be fully focused on guests having a fantastic experience!

WE OFFER:
