Join our team of passionate hospitality professionals!


We’re looking for a dedicated Store Manager to lead our front-of-house team and uphold the highest standards of service, cleanliness, and professionalism. This is a hands-on role for someone who leads by example and thrives in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment. Bilingual English/Spanish speaker.


What You’ll Do:
Leadership & Standards

  • Be the example — maintain professionalism, positive energy, and a polished appearance (hair neat, non-slip shoes required, no sandals).
  • Keep the location spotless, including bathrooms and guest areas.
  • Motivate the team to complete their daily responsibilities and uphold company standards.
  • No phone use during work hours — stay engaged and lead the team actively.
    Team Management
  • Be available during peak hours (Thursday–Saturday).
  • Oversee all cashiers, servers, and drivers — scheduling, performance, and attendance.
  • Review staff clock-ins/outs and coordinate with the Assistant Manager on driver hours and tip tracking.
  • Interview, hire, and train new staff members.
  • Ensure every team member signs and submits the employee handbook to Paola or Cris.
  • Handle coverage if someone calls out — find a replacement or step in yourself.
    Training & Quality Control
  • Train new team members in service, cashier operations, and delivery procedures.
  • Maintain consistent drink and food quality from the team.
  • Address performance issues promptly — guide, coach, or replace as needed.
    Customer Service & Operations
  • Lead a warm, welcoming environment where every guest feels valued.
  • Ensure staff greet guests, promote specials, and thank customers as they leave.
  • Handle customer complaints, refunds, and system issues.
  • Manage refunds on Clover, Uber Eats, Grubhub, and DoorDash, and notify Paola if website refunds are needed.
  • Coordinate catering orders — all catering requests go through you.
  • Keep menus and modifiers up to date on Clover and Otter.
  • Confirm and plan for reservations through Wix.
    Inventory & Reporting
  • Conduct inventory on the first Wednesday of every month (beer, alcohol, soda, supplies).
  • Submit weekly reports on staff performance, service flow, and delivery capacity.
  • Manage supply orders (soda, take-out, cleaning).
  • Suggest improvements to enhance the guest experience — signage, layout, workflow, etc.
    Technology & Systems
  • Troubleshoot POS, printer, or system issues as they arise.
  • Limit phone/computer use to work-related tasks.
    What We’re Looking For
  • 2+ years of experience in restaurant or hospitality management.
  • Strong leadership and communication skills.
  • Solid understanding of POS systems (Clover, Toast, or similar).
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities during peak times.
  • Hands-on attitude — willing to train, support, and work alongside the team.
  • Experience with third-party delivery platforms a plus.
    Schedule
  • Full-time position.
  • Must be available Thursday–Saturday evenings and flexible during the week.
    Compensation
  • Competitive salary based on experience.
  • Weekly pay and room for growth within a fast-growing hospitality group.
