  • Meaningful operating experience within the DMV market
  • Southern California market experience strongly preferred
  • Full-service restaurant or hospitality-driven leadership experience
  • Current QSR leaders may be considered if they have a strong full-service foundation and can clearly demonstrate a hospitality-first approach
  • Strong P&L ownership with a history of improving sales and profitability
  • Proven ability to develop leaders, strengthen culture, and improve underperforming locations
  • Willingness and ability to travel regularly between the DMV and Southern California
