The Game Plan (Your Responsibilities)

• Run the Show: Supervise shifts to ensure every pizza is perfect and every customer leaves happy.

• Problem Solver: Handle customer needs with grace and keep the restaurant clean, safe, and ready for action.

The "Key Ingredients" (What You Bring)

• The Experience: Previous restaurant leadership experience is preferred—you know how a kitchen hums!

• The Skills: You’re organized, a great communicator, and a pro at handling cash.

• The Vibe: Positive, adaptable, and ready to uphold our core values every single shift.

• The Credentials: HS Diploma/GED and a Food Service Certification (like Serv-Safe) are a big plus.
