Job Description

Tar Heel Capital is a well-established franchise operator of Wendy's restaurants, having been in operation since 1977. With a strong presence in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, Tar Heel Capital has grown to operate 89 locations, making it one of the prominent players in the quick-service restaurant industry in the southeastern United States. As a franchise of Wendy's, the company upholds the core values and standards set by the brand, which is renowned for serving hot, fresh hamburgers made to order with a choice of toppings and exceptional customer service. The company prides itself on maintaining a stable and growing business environment, offering exciting career opportunities in restaurant management to motivated individuals.

The Restaurant Manager role at Tar Heel Capital is a full-time position that offers a unique blend of hands-on learning and classroom training through an extensive 10-12 week management training program. This program is designed to equip new managers with comprehensive knowledge of restaurant operations, enabling them to manage all aspects of the business effectively. While experienced managers are preferred, the company welcomes candidates who are eager to learn and grow within the Wendy's system. Special consideration is given to applicants with prior Wendy's experience. The role requires the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment, managing a team, delivering excellent customer service, and ensuring operational excellence at each restaurant.

In this position, managers will be responsible for leading their teams to provide outstanding customer experiences that align with Wendy's commitment to quality and service. Tar Heel Capital believes in rewarding top-performing managers with competitive base salaries complemented by a monthly bonus program, recognizing the effort and results delivered by their leadership. Along with financial rewards, the company offers a comprehensive benefits package, including health, dental, vision, and life insurance, company matching 401(k), tuition reimbursement, free meals and uniforms, and even adoption assistance programs. This demonstrates the company’s commitment to supporting its employees both professionally and personally.

Tar Heel Capital's management philosophy is deeply rooted in the principles established by Dave Thomas, the founder of Wendy's. Managers are expected to uphold these values by ensuring each customer is treated as a special guest and that every hamburger served meets the high standards of quality and freshness that Wendy's is known for. This dedication to service excellence, combined with a supportive work environment and career advancement opportunities, makes this role an excellent choice for individuals seeking to build a long-term career in the restaurant industry. With locations such as the one at 804 Assembly, Columbia, SC 29201, Tar Heel Capital continues to expand its footprint while maintaining a reputation for quality and integrity in its operations.
