Job Description

Assistant Manager – Fast-Casual Restaurant Group

Rehoboth Beach, DE Area

Salary- $52-62k, benefits, bonus, 401k, training and development!

We’re a high-volume, fast-casual restaurant group built on internal growth, hands-on leadership, and genuine hospitality in the Rehoboth Beach, DE area. With dozens of restaurants across the region, we serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily. Our Assistant Managers succeed because they lead by example and work side-by-side with their teams.

What You’ll Do

• Lead from the floor: Stay engaged during all dayparts. This is a hands-on role where you’ll coach, support, and work alongside your team — not from an office.
• Grow the culture: Develop and mentor hourly team members. Many of our managers started in hourly roles because we believe great leaders understand the business from the ground up.
• Champion guest service: Create a welcoming, energetic environment for every guest. Leaders with casual dining or hospitality backgrounds thrive here because they bring a people-first mindset.
• Run the business: Oversee food quality, cleanliness, service standards, and shift execution. Help your café run smoothly and set each shift up for success.

Who We’re Looking For

We can teach systems and menus. We look for attitude, energy, and heart.

• A true passion for the restaurant industry and serving people
• Hands-on leadership style — you’re comfortable jumping in wherever needed
• Experience in fast-casual or casual dining preferred but not required for the right person
• Flexibility to work a rotating schedule that includes nights and weekends. We design schedules to avoid burnout: no open-to-close shifts, no doubles, and we protect your days off

Why Join Us

• Balance: No late-night bar scene, no fryers, and closing shifts that get you home at a reasonable hour
• Growth: Real career paths with a company that promotes from within and values long-term leaders
• Culture: A team-oriented environment where attitude and effort matter more than anything on a résumé
• Rotating weekends off
• Compensation & Benefits
• Competitive salary based on experience, with performance-based bonus opportunities
• Health benefits including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability, and more. Coverage begins shortly after hire
• Paid time off that grows with your tenure
• Retirement plan with company match

Additional perks like flex spending, supplemental insurance options, and pet insurance
