Job Description

Assistant General Manager – Mellow Mushroom (Jacksonville, FL)

$56,000–$63,000/year + Quarterly Bonus Program

Lead the team. Drive the standard. Stay Mellow.

Since 1974, Mellow Mushroom has been slinging stone-baked pies with a heavy dose of good vibes. We're locally owned and operated with five Jacksonville shops — Avondale, Southside, Beach, Fleming Island, and River City — and we're looking for an Assistant General Manager who doesn't just support the business but drives it forward.

At Mellow, leadership isn't about titles — it's about ownership, awareness, and execution. You're the bridge between vision and execution: you turn standards into daily habits, expectations into results, and team members into leaders.

The good stuff

• $56,000–$63,000/year + quarterly bonus — when the shop wins, you win
• Health, dental, vision, and life insurance + 401(k)
• Great PTO — mellow isn't just in our name; go recharge
• Free and discounted food (yes, that includes the pizza)
• Real growth — our in-house leadership training program builds you toward General Manager and beyond, with five stores and climbing and optional travel opportunities along the way

Your mission, should you choose to accept it

• Lead day-to-day operations with focus, urgency, and awareness — highly visible on the floor, coaching in real time
• Deliver an exceptional, consistent guest experience every shift
• Develop and hold your team accountable — build them up while driving the standard
• Own sales, labor, food cost, and profitability; manage schedules and staffing to match the business
• Handle cash controls, inventory, and reporting accurately; keep the restaurant clean, organized, and complaints.
• Jump into any role when the shift calls for it — lead by example

You might be our people if...

• You're 21+ with 1+ year of restaurant leadership experience
• Knowledge and understanding of restaurant operations and financials is a bonus
• You know beer, wine, and liquor service — or you're ready to learn (we're willing to train)
• You communicate clearly, stay calm under pressure, and take ownership — no excuses, no deflection
• You don't wait, you anticipate. You don't manage problems, you prevent them. You don't maintain, you elevate.
• You can thrive in a fast-paced, high-volume environment, stand for extended periods, and lift up to 50 lbs.
• You're available to work 50–55 hours per week, including nights and weekends

Ready to step into leadership?

You're the standard bearer — shaping culture, development, and driving performance that impacts the whole business. If that's you, we want to talk.

Apply today.
