Tin Drum Asian Kitchen is seeking a high-energy, hands-on Assistant General Manager to help lead our premier Decatur location. We are looking for a "four-wall" leader—someone who treats the business like their own, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is obsessed with the guest experience.

The ideal candidate is a motivated professional ready to support daily operations while developing the leadership skills necessary to run their own shop.

Key Responsibilities

• Operational Excellence: Maintain high standards for food quality, cleanliness, and service speed.

• Team Development: Assist in hiring, training, and mentoring a high-performing team.

• Guest Obsession: Ensure every guest receives an authentic and energetic "Tin Drum" experience.

Career Growth Potential

Note on Advancement: This role is designed for a leader with an ownership mindset. For the right candidate who demonstrates exceptional performance and cultural fit, this position may lead into a full General Manager role.

Requirements

• Previous experience in a high-volume, fast-casual environment.

• A "lead-from-the-front" mentality (you aren't afraid to jump on the line).

• Strong communication skills and a passion for hospitality.

What’s In It For You?

• Competitive Salary: $50k – $60k starting base.

• Paid Training (at one of our Corporate locations.)

• Quarterly Bonuses: Earn $4,000 per year based on hitting key performance metrics.

• Paid Vacation: 1 week of PTO after 1 year; 2 weeks of PTO after 2 years.

• Growth Environment: Work directly with the Managing Partner in a high-accountability, high-reward culture.

• Prime Location: Manage a bustling store in a great area close to downtown Decatur.

What We Require:

• Availability: Must be flexible and willing to work 50-hour work weeks . This includes being present during peak times: days, nights, weekends, and holidays as the business demands.

• Operational Excellence: Strong attention to detail regarding food safety, inventory management, and labor costs.

• People Skills: A proven track record of coaching teams, handling guest concerns with grace, and building a positive work culture.

• Accountability: You lead by example. We have a zero-tolerance policy for tardiness and underperformance; we expect you to hold your team to those same standards.

• Experience: Previous restaurant management experience is required.
