SHIFT LEADER
Dave’s Hot Chicken | FTB Services | Tampa Bay Area
Dave’s Hot Chicken started with four friends, $900, and a dream to make ridiculously good hot chicken. What began as a tiny East Hollywood parking-lot stand has grown into one of the fastest-growing restaurant brands around—with big flavor, serious heat, and a personality all its own.
Our Tampa Bay restaurants are operated by FTB Services, a team that believes in being For the Brand. We show up for our people, take care of our guests, and work together to make every shift count.
The Role
We’re looking for a Shift Leader who can bring the energy, keep the team moving, and help make every shift a great one. You’ll work alongside the restaurant management team to run a smooth, organized shift while making sure guests get great food, fast service, and a welcoming experience.
This is a hands-on leadership role. You’ll jump in wherever you’re needed, coach the team in real time, and help set the tone for the entire restaurant.
What You’ll Do
· Lead the shift with confidence, positivity, and a healthy sense of urgency.
· Assign positions and tasks based on the needs of the shift and the strengths of the team.
· Keep the team focused, supported, and moving during busy periods.
· Train and coach new and current team members on Dave’s standards, station responsibilities, and great guest service.
· Make sure food is prepared accurately, safely, and consistently according to Dave’s Hot Chicken standards.
· Greet guests, answer questions, take orders, serve food, and help create a fun, welcoming experience.
· Handle guest questions and concerns calmly and find solutions that make things right.
· Keep the restaurant clean, stocked, organized, and ready for the next rush.
· Delegate cleaning tasks, including tables, floors, restrooms, kitchen areas, equipment, and high-touch surfaces.
· Operate restaurant equipment, including fryers, warmers, beverage equipment, and other kitchen tools safely.
· Complete required shift checks, checklists, and administrative tasks.
· Support opening and closing procedures as directed by the management team.
· Follow food safety, cash-handling, security, sanitation, and cost-control procedures.
· Balance cash drawers and prepare deposits when assigned.
· Share team performance updates and shift concerns with the restaurant management team.
· Help address attendance, performance, and teamwork issues in a respectful and consistent way.
· Communicate clearly with teammates and managers to help solve problems quickly.
· Lead by example—bring the energy, take ownership, and help create a team people want to work with.
You Might Be Our Person If You…
· Are at least 18 years old.
· Enjoy working with people and helping a team succeed.
· Can stay calm and focused when the restaurant gets busy.
· Are comfortable giving direction, jumping in to help, and holding yourself and others accountable.
· Bring a positive attitude and treat guests and teammates with respect.
· Communicate clearly and follow through on what you say you’ll do.
· Are willing to learn every station and help train others.
· Are available for a flexible schedule, including nights, weekends, holidays, opening shifts, and closing shifts.
The Real Talk
This is an active, hands-on restaurant role. You’ll spend your shift moving around the restaurant, working with the team, serving guests, and helping wherever you’re needed. You’ll work around kitchen equipment and heat, and no two shifts will be exactly the same.
Why Join FTB Services?
At FTB Services, we believe leadership is about showing up for your team. Our managers work alongside the crew, support one another, and help create restaurants where people can work hard, have fun, and grow.
If you’re ready to take the lead, bring the heat, and help make every shift a great one, we’d love to meet you.
