What We’re Looking For

The ideal Assistant Manager is dependable, organized, energetic, accountable, and comfortable making decisions. This position requires someone who can support the General Manager while also confidently taking ownership of the restaurant and team when needed.

Restaurant management experience is preferred, but above all, we are looking for a strong leader with a great attitude, sense of urgency, willingness to learn, and the ability to develop a successful team.

This is not a desk-management position. Our Assistant Managers are hands-on leaders who work alongside their teams, understand the business, support their General Manager, and take pride in the success of their store.
