Marketing Manager

The Role

You will earn influence by:

• Showing up prepared
• Working alongside the team
• Executing consistently
• Delivering results that can be measured

Non-Negotiable Responsibilities: 

Operations 

• Serve regular shifts in FOH and/or BOH, including peak periods
• Model speed of service, accuracy, food safety, and hospitality standards
• Support Supervisors and Directors during rushes—not observe from the sidelines
• Identify operational breakdowns and communicate clearly with leadership
• Be trusted on the floor when things get busy

If you cannot succeed operationally,  you will not succeed in this role .

• Create and publish authentic content rooted in real operations
• Manage local social channels in alignment with brand standards
• Drive catering awareness, including our Food Truck operation
• Track results and report what worked, what didn’t, and why

Leadership Expectations

• Act like an owner, not a coordinator
• Hold yourself accountable before being held accountable
• Communicate clearly and directly with leaders and team members
• Coach team members on hospitality and brand representation
• Raise the standard—never lower it to make things easier

Who This Role Is For

• Comfortable being coached and corrected
• Organized, disciplined, and follow-through oriented
• Confident speaking with guests, business owners, and community partners
• Willing to be on their feet, in uniform, and in the work
