Shift Manager

This McDonald's restaurant is independently owned and operated by a franchisee who holds the license to use McDonald’s logos and food products.

This separation means that if hired for this position, you will be employed directly by the franchisee rather than McDonald’s USA, and all employment-related processes will be managed by the franchisee.
