The employment type is full-time, with a competitive salary range of $50,000 to $65,000 per year, reflecting the responsibility and demands of the role.

As General Manager, you will lead the restaurant’s management team in overseeing daily operations across all shifts, including financial controls, people development, and customer service.

You will be responsible for ensuring the facility is consistently 'inspection ready' in food preparation, cleanliness, and guest contact areas, complying with Department of Health and internal company standards.

Your entrepreneurial approach will drive sales growth and cost reduction, with keen attention to labor budgets, cash controls, and controllable expenses that impact profitability.

Operational excellence is expected, with full compliance to brand standards, safety, and cleanliness, passing all audits and inspections, and setting and achieving sales goals and forecasts. Additionally, you will foster community involvement by promoting strong restaurant and personnel engagement with local initiatives.
