Job Description
Fast Casual Restaurant General Manager
NO SUNDAYS, Only open 10am to 6pm...NO LATE NIGHTS!!!!!
Lead. Inspire. Deliver an Exceptional Guest Experience.
We’re looking for a proven, high-volume General Manager, with “fast-casual” restaurant background to lead the day-to-day operations of newest restaurant opening this summer in Westwood, New jersey.
If you’re a hands-on restaurant / food service leader who thrives in high-energy settings and knows how to build strong restaurant teams while delivering outstanding food and hospitality, this is your opportunity to take the next step.
This is not a “sit in the office” role. You’ll be in the action—coaching your team, engaging with guests, and ensuring every shift runs with precision, speed, and consistency.
What You’ll Own
· Drive daily restaurant operations in a brand-new location with a focus on exceptional guest experience, food quality, and speed of service
· You will hire, train and build your food service team, through recruiting, training, and hands-on coaching
· Create and sustain a positive, accountability-driven culture
· Manage key business drivers including labor cost, food cost, inventory, and overall profitability
· Ensure full compliance with health, safety, sanitation, and brand standards
· Maintain a clean, organized, and fully operational restaurant environment
· You will lead from the front—resolving guest concerns and modeling hospitality at every level
· Oversee scheduling, payroll accuracy, and team performance
· Manage both front- and back-of-house operations, including POS and restaurant systems
What You Bring
· 4+ years of Restaurant General Manager experience in a high-volume fast casual restaurant, QSR restaurant, or deli concept
· A hands-on leadership style—you’re just as comfortable on the line or register as you are leading the team
· Strong communication, coaching, and team-building skills
· Solid business acumen with a focus on driving results and controlling costs
· ServSafe certification (or ability to obtain within 90 days)
· Flexible availability, including evenings, weekends, and holidays
What We Offer
· Competitive compensation package with base salary starting at $65-75K
· 401(k) with company match
· Health, dental, and vision insurance
· Paid time off
· Paid training and development
If you’re a driven restaurant leader who takes pride in running a tight operation, developing people, and delivering a great guest experience every single day—we’d love to connect!
