With thousands of locations worldwide, the company prides itself on delivering superior customer service and fostering a dynamic work environment where employees can thrive and grow their careers. The brand is recognized for its square-shaped beef patties, fresh produce, and a welcoming atmosphere for both customers and team members alike. Operating primarily through franchised locations, Wendy's offers unique opportunities to be part of an iconic brand committed to excellence and community involvement.

This particular opportunity is with one of Wendy's franchisees located in Phoenix, Arizona, at 3201 E.

As an Assistant General Manager (AGM), you will play a pivotal role in supporting the General Manager by providing strong leadership, supervision, and strategic direction to ensure the restaurant meets its operational goals and upholds Wendy's high standards.

Some of the highlighted benefits for this position include a competitive bonus plan, paid time off, medical, dental, and vision insurance (eligible the first day of the month following 60 days of employment), a 401K retirement plan with company match available upon hire, and an employee referral program. These benefits reflect Wendy's commitment to investing in their team members' health, financial security, and personal growth.

The Assistant General Manager role requires standing long hours, physical activity such as bending, kneeling, and lifting up to 50 pounds, and occasional driving for business errands. It is essential that candidates possess reliable transportation and a valid driver's license. Shifts may include evenings and weekends, and overtime hours are expected.
