Restaurant General Manager

Thrive Restaurant Group

Fuel Your Future with Flavor. Lead with Purpose.

Are you a people-powered, flavor-forward, taco-loving legend? Then we've got a leadership opportunity that's as bold as our burritos. QDOBA Mexican Eats is on the hunt for a General Manager who's ready to bring the heat, leading with passion, purpose, and plenty of queso.

When you join QDOBA, you're not just stepping into a restaurant - you're stepping into the Thrive Restaurant Group family. That means heart, soul, integrity, and a seriously awesome people-first culture that believes you can thrive at work and in life.

What You'll Be Dishing Out:

As the fearless flavor captain of your restaurant, you'll:
  • Lead by example - energize your team and deliver unforgettable guest experiences
  • Hire, train & develop a dream team that brings the QDOBA magic every shift
  • Own the numbers - manage budgets, inventory, scheduling, and all the fun operations stuff
  • Foster a culture of growth, accountability, and positivity
  • Build community connections that turn guests into regulars
  • Ensure safety, cleanliness, and excellence from open to close
Ingredients for a Rock Star GM:
  • 2+ years in restaurant management (fast casual or full service preferred)
  • A track record of building strong teams & mentoring future leaders
  • Budget-savvy, people-smart, and solutions-focused
  • You communicate like a pro and hustle with heart
  • Nights, weekends, holidays? No problem-you're all in.
Why You'll Love Rolling with Us:

Sure, we wrap burritos-but we also wrap you up in support, opportunity, and a whole lot of team spirit.
  • Competitive salary + bonus potential
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid time off + holidays
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Free QDOBA meals while you work (yes, really!)
  • Career growth with a growing brand backed by Thrive
  • A workplace where you're seen, heard, and valued

Ready to Spice Up Your Career?

Don't just clock in - lead with flavor. Apply today and bring your leadership to a place where bold careers are always on the menu.

QDOBA and Thrive Restaurant Group are Equal Opportunity Employers. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.
