A restaurant GM job with your nights back

The market closes at 6 p.m., so this is a daytime position, five days a week. Start times vary with the needs of the business. Some days start early, some later, but you’re done when the market closes.No late nights, no midnight inventory. Weekends are required. Days off are generally weekdays, set in coordination with the assistant manager.

This is a hands-on job

We need a leader who runs the floor and works it too: the grill, slicing, expo, mopping, whatever the line needs that day. If you want a suit-and-tie management role, this isn’t it. If you thrive on volume and lead from the front, it is.

What you’ll do

• Run daily operations at a very high-volume counter, keeping the line fast, consistent and clean through every rush.

• Lead a team of 15+: hiring, training, scheduling and holding people to a high standard.

• Make sure every sandwich meets our standards, every time.

• Keep inventory counts accurate and on time.

• Maintain food safety and health-code compliance.

• Handle guest issues calmly and professionally.

What we’re looking for

• 3+ years of management in high-volume restaurants, with at least 1 year as a GM or AGM.

• A track record of running a fast line under pressure and keeping a big team organized and motivated.

• Fast-casual, QSR, food hall, concessions or high-volume deli experience is a plus.

• A steady temperament. You stay calm under pressure with staff, guests and the public.

• ServSafe Manager certification, or the ability to obtain it.

What we offer

• Highly competitive salary

• Performance bonus

• Full health insurance

• Two weeks paid vacation

• Daytime hours and no nights

• Owners on site who handle purchasing and the back office, so you can focus on your team and your line

• An easy commute: Jefferson Station is directly beneath the market, with SEPTA Regional Rail, the subway and PATCO nearby

• A chance to grow with an established, award-winning ownership group
