What are the responsibilities and job description for the Restaurant Manager position at Steak 'n Shake Daytona Beach?
Join the leadership team at a Restaurant at the Forefront of QSR Innovation
At Steak 'n Shake, we’re blending our rich heritage with bold innovation to redefine what a quick-service experience can be with a relentless focus on hospitality, ensuring every guest feels welcome, valued, and cared for.

Reporting directly to the General Manager/Franchise Partner you will ensure business and strategic goals are met through team leadership.
What You’ll Do
Restaurant Leadership & Operations
- Lead by example—actively working the line, prepping food, maintaining cleanliness, and serving guests across all shifts: opening, mid-day, and closing.
- Wear a professional uniform daily—shirt and tie or collared blouse—setting the tone for team presentation and upholding all brand standards, food safety practices, and service protocols.
Financial Performance
- Own the P&L: manage food costs, control inventory, verify invoices, and eliminate waste while driving labor efficiency with smart scheduling, cross-training, and station versatility.
Inventory & Supply Chain Control
- Oversee inventory from the back door to the front line.
Team Building & Development
- Recruit, train, and retain top hourly talent through clear feedback and coaching.
Job Requirements
- 1 years of QSR or fast-casual restaurant management experience required.
- Proven history of consistent work tenure and reliable leadership.
- Deep understanding of food cost management, labor optimization, and operational KPIs.
- Hands-on leadership—comfortable working the drive through or grill when needed.
- Tech-savvy with POS systems, inventory platforms, and invoice tools.
- Strong physical stamina: can lift 50 lbs., stay on your feet all day, and thrive in a fast-paced kitchen.
- Professionalism that extends to your LinkedIn profile (if you have one) and resume—both should tell the same story.
- Track record in driving hospitality excellence and navigating change in a team setting.
- Minimum of 18 years of age.
