- Monitor financial performance and control costs
- Handle guest concerns professionally and effectively
- Promote a positive, energetic, team-focused culture
- Lead by example and uphold brand standards at all times
What We’re Looking For
- 4 years of General Manager experience in a high-volume restaurant
- Experience managing teams of 40 employees
- Strong leadership, communication, and organizational skills
- Extensive food & beverage knowledge
- Proven ability to thrive in fast-paced, high-pressure environments
- Strong understanding of restaurant financials and inventory systems
- Comfortable coaching, delegating, and holding teams accountable
- Bilingual (English/Spanish) is a plus

What Makes You a Great Fit
You’re dependable, driven, hospitality-focused, and know how to inspire a team. You lead with urgency, stay calm under pressure, and understand that great restaurants are built through consistency, culture, and attention to detail.
If you’re ready to grow with a company that values leadership, energy, and operational excellence, we want to hear from you.
