About the Opportunity
Are you a hands-on multi-unit leader who thrives on developing people and driving operational excellence? We are seeking a District Manager to oversee Burger King restaurants in the Columbus, OH market.
You will be joining one of the largest and fastest-growing multi-brand franchisees in the country. Managing over 200 Burger King locations across 17 states, our group was recently honored as the 2025 Burger King Franchisee of the Year. Backed by a massive 475 unit infrastructure, you will have the resources, training, and administrative support to truly lead your market toward success.
Why Join Us?
- Award-Winning Culture: Work for the proud recipient of the 2025 Burger King Franchisee of the Year award.
- Unrivaled Stability: Our operational leadership team features Directors of Operations boasting an incredible 30 year tenure.
- Massive Infrastructure: With 475 locations under our parent organization, you get access to world-class training, finance, HR, and development systems that single-brand operators simply cannot match.
- Cross-Brand Career Paths: Grow your career across a stable multi-brand ecosystem spanning multiple national concepts.
- People First: Gain access to our dedicated employee hardship grant fund, providing a tangible signal of our supportive team culture.
What You'll Do
As a District Manager, you won’t be managing from a laptop at home. You will be a visible, active leader in your restaurants.
- Own the P&L: Take full accountability for driving sales, managing controllables (food & labor), and maximizing store-level EBITDA across your restaurant span.
- Be On-Shift & Present: Spend the bulk of your week inside the restaurants, building personal, direct relationships with your General Managers (RGMs) and Assistant General Managers (AGMs).
- Coach, Don't Just Manage: Focus on people-first coaching to elevate your restaurant managers into stronger, more independent business operators.
- Protect the Brand: Maintain strict adherence to QSC (Quality, Service, Cleanliness) standards, drive-thru speed-of-service, and guest satisfaction metrics.
- Build the Bench: Proactively identify talent, develop next-up shift leaders, and maintain a visible internal promotion pipeline.
- Drive Hourly Staffing: Partner closely with HR and recruiting teams to optimize restaurant staffing levels and boost local team retention.
What You Bring
- Experience: 5 years of multi-unit Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) leadership experience managing a span of 4 to 10 restaurants.
- Brand Background: Burger King experience is highly preferred, though comparable big-box QSR experience (e.g., McDonald's, Wendy's, Taco Bell, Hardee's) will absolutely be considered.
- Leadership Style: A hands-on, boots-on-the-ground operating style. You are comfortable working side-by-side with your crew when necessary.
- Proven Track Record: A documented history of developing, mentoring, and promoting internal restaurant talent.
- Job Stability: A history of stable job tenure; we value leaders who look to build long, rewarding careers.
Benefits & Perks

- Robust performance-based bonus structure
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits
- Company-provided tools/allowances for daily multi-store travel
- Clear path toward higher-level operational leadership roles
