About this job

Are you a natural-born leader with the energy of a Sonic Slush and the teamwork skills of a perfectly choreographed carhop crew? Do you thrive in a fast-paced, fun-filled environment where the tater tots are crispy, the music is upbeat, and every guest leaves with a smile (and probably a cherry-limeade)?

If you said “HECK YES!”, then we want you as our next Assistant Manager!

⭐ What You’ll Do:

Lead, inspire, and hype up an awesome team of fun-loving Sonic superstars

Keep the drive-in running smoother than a fresh batch of soft-serve

Help create a workplace where positivity is the special sauce

Master the art of multitasking—orders, operations, team morale… you’ve got this

Be second-in-command and first-in-fun 

⭐ What You Bring:

Leadership skills that make people say, “Teach me your ways!”

A passion for great food, fast service, and happy people

The ability to handle busy shifts like a pro

A love for teamwork—no one flips a burger alone

Reliability, responsibility, and a splash of Sonic-level enthusiasm

⭐ Perks & Goodies:

Competitive pay (ka-ching!)

Opportunities to grow your career faster than a drive-thru order

A fun, upbeat environment where every day feels like a 90s summer commercial

Free and discounted Sonic treats—yes, that means tots

The satisfaction of being a hero of hunger relief every single shift
