What are the responsibilities and job description for the Assistant General Manager position at Taco John's?
Assistant General Manager — Taco John's | $22–$25/hr Monthly Bonus Potential
You've already proven you can run a shift. This is the job where you learn to run the business.
Pentex Restaurant Group is the largest Taco John's franchisee in the country, and we're opening more restaurants every year. That's not a bragging point — it's a math problem. Every new store needs a General Manager, and we'd rather promote one than hire one. If you've got a couple of years of supervisory experience under your belt and you're tired of being the person who holds it together without the title, keep reading.
What You'll Actually Do
As an Assistant General Manager, you're second in command and being built for first.
- Run the floor. Own shift execution end to end — labor, speed of service, food safety, the save when the lunch rush goes sideways.
- Build the team. Coach crew members, set the tone, and create the kind of shift people actually want to pick up.
- Learn the numbers. Food cost, labor percentage, inventory, P&L. Your GM will teach you to read the business, not just work in it.
- Stay in the mix. You'll take orders, run the register, prep food, and clean the dining room right alongside your team. We lead from the line here, not the office.
What You Bring
- 2 years in a supervisory role in quick service restaurants
- A real interest in the business side — you want to understand why the numbers move, not just hit them
- Full-time availability, including days, nights, and weekends
- The judgment to make the call when nobody's there to make it for you
The Path Up
We'll train you on everything: operations, scheduling, inventory, cost control, hiring, and people development. We put the ladder in front of you — how fast you climb is on you.
The Package
- $22–$25/hour
- Monthly bonus up to $300 — tied to results you can actually influence
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- Paid vacation
- 401(k) with employer match
- Employee Assistance Program
- 50% off meals
- Free Rapid! Pay Card for direct deposit
One More Thing
We hire for TEAM — Trustworthy, Ethical, Ambitious, Motivated. We're also the only place on earth serving Potato Olés, which we take more seriously than we probably should.
