Professional Restaurant Manager

Now Hiring: Professional Restaurant Manager
Lead. Inspire. Elevate.


Location: Cary, NC

Compensation: $60,000-$70,000 annually + bonus potential, benefits, and long-term growth opportunities

Position Type: Full-time, salaried

Experience Required:
5+ years in a senior leadership role as an impact player for a high-volume, full-service restaurant, restaurant group, or multi-unit operation

We're looking for a seasoned hospitality professional to join our leadership team and help shape the next evolution of our brand. This is not an entry-level management position - it's a high-impact operational role with the opportunity to lead initiatives, mentor teams, and influence the future of the company alongside ownership and senior leadership.


What We're Looking For:

• A hands-on leader who leads from the front and earns respect through action
• Someone with uncompromising standards who believes hospitality is a craft
• A culture-builder who knows how to unite a team and drive performance
• A sharp operator who understands every layer of the business - from financials to facilities to floor service
• A humble professional who is still eager to learn, grow, and evolve with us
• A proven mentor with a track record of developing leaders from within
• A genuine passion for food, hospitality, and team development

You'll Be Responsible For:

• Supporting day-to-day operations while collaborating with the leadership team
• Improving accountability systems, team performance, and service consistency
• Training, coaching, and developing management and hourly team members
• Executing brand standards, SOPs, and high-level guest experiences
• Playing a critical role in strategic initiatives and long-term growth plans

Bonus Points If You Have:

• Experience in both FOH & BOH operations
• Background in catering, banquets, large-scale events, or food truck operations
• A strong interest in growth-stage brands or emerging restaurant groups
• Experience in marketing or brand development
• Tech-savvy with comfort using modern systems and tools
• A desire to shape systems and be part of something bigger than yourself

Why This Role is Different:
We're not hiring just to fill a shift - we're looking for a leader with the potential to make a lasting impact. You'll be walking into a restaurant with a rich history, a loyal guest base, and a strong team that's poised for growth.


The right candidate will find mentorship, autonomy, and meaningful opportunity here - and will play a central role in helping us level up across the board.

Please include a copy of your resume and a short note telling us what leadership means to you.
