This position offers a unique opportunity for experienced restaurant professionals who thrive in a leadership capacity, managing both staff and day-to-day operations to ensure smooth and efficient service.

Candidates successful in this role are those who are friendly, enthusiastic, competitive, and driven to succeed. Creativity and innovation are highly valued qualities, along with the ability to stay balanced and composed when juggling multiple responsibilities.

Joining The Big Biscuit means becoming part of a team that not only emphasizes excellence in culinary and customer service but also offers comprehensive training and career growth opportunities. Employees benefit from a competitive salary package and a suite of appealing benefits such as medical and dental insurance, paid time off, and 401K matching.
