Job Description
General Manager
$65,000–$70,000 + up to 10k bonus
A well-established, nationally recognized quick-service restaurant brand is looking for a hands-on General Manager to lead the team. This is one of the most consistently high-volume drive-thru operations in the region, and we need a proven restaurant leader who thrives on speed, precision, and building a team that can keep pace with that volume day after day. This isn't a starter GM role. You'll be stepping into a store with strong sales, a loyal customer base, and the backing of a corporate-supported operator that invests in its people and its equipment. If you've got QSR management experience and you're ready for a bigger paycheck, real bonus potential, and a clear path to grow within a larger organization, we want to talk to you.
What You'll Be Doing
• Own full P&L responsibility for the restaurant, including labor, food cost, and controllable expenses
• Recruit, train, schedule, and develop a team capable of running a high-volume, drive-thru-driven operation
• Set the pace on the floor during rushes, coaching speed of service without sacrificing accuracy or quality
• Maintain food safety, sanitation, and brand operational standards at all times
• Drive a strong guest experience through consistent execution and a well-trained crew
• Manage inventory, ordering, and vendor relationships to control cost and avoid shortages
• Build a bench of shift leaders and assistant managers to support ongoing growth and succession
• Partner with your District Manager on sales-building initiatives and store-level goals
What We're Looking For
• 3+ years of General Manager experience in a high-volume quick-service or fast-casual restaurant
• A track record of hitting labor and food cost targets while keeping speed-of-service strong
• Experience running a drive-thru-focused operation is strongly preferred
• Strong leadership skills with a hands-on, lead-from-the-front management style
• Comfortable with restaurant-standard scheduling, inventory, and POS systems
• Food safety certification (ServSafe or equivalent), or willingness to obtain one
• Flexibility to work varied shifts, including evenings, weekends, and holidays as needed
Compensation & Benefits
• Base salary of $65,000–$70,000, based on experience
• Annual bonus potential of up to an additional $12,000 based on store performance
• Health, dental, and vision insurance options
• Paid time off
• Ongoing leadership training and a clear path toward multi-unit or higher-level operations roles
If you're a GM who knows how to run a high-volume, fast-paced restaurant and you're ready for a role with real bonus upside and room to grow, we'd love to hear from you.
