General Manager

ABOUT FOX & RAVEN 

Fox & Raven is Corvus Coffee's newest concept: a from-scratch restaurant built around a Corvus specialty coffee bar, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner alongside a full beer, wine, and spirits program. Our kitchen is known for sourdough-based breakfast items and brick oven pizza, and we're looking for a hands-on leader to open and run the entire operation. 

POSITION SUMMARY 

The General Manager owns the full day-to-day operation and financial performance of Fox & Raven. This is a true “GM of the building” role: every team member — front of house, back of house, bar, and coffee bar — reports up through the GM. The GM carries full P&L accountability, partners closely with the Director of Food and Bakery on menu execution and food/bakery quality, and reports to the Director of Retail on overall business performance and strategy. 

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Own the full P&L for Fox & Raven, including revenue, cost of goods, labor, and controllable expenses. 
• Build and manage budgets and sales forecasts; deliver against margin and profitability targets. 
• Analyze daily, weekly, and period-end financial and operational reports, and take corrective action as needed. 
• Manage inventory, ordering, and vendor relationships across the coffee, kitchen, and bar programs. 

Team Leadership & Staffing 

• Serve as the single point of leadership for all Fox & Raven staff, including back-of-house, front-of-house, bar, and coffee bar teams. 
• Recruit, hire, train, schedule, and develop managers and hourly staff across all dayparts. 
• Set clear performance expectations, coach and evaluate staff, and manage disciplinary and HR matters in partnership with company HR resources. 
• Build a strong, low-turnover culture that reflects Corvus Coffee's standards and values. 

Operations Across Dayparts 

• Oversee daily operations across breakfast, lunch, and dinner service, plus the Corvus coffee bar. 
• Maintain consistent execution and quality of our signature sourdough breakfast items and brick oven pizza program. 
• Run a full beer, wine, and spirits program, including responsible alcohol service, liquor licensing compliance, and bar cost management. 
• Ensure compliance with all health department, food safety, and alcohol service regulations. 
• Uphold guest experience and service standards across the full restaurant, bar, and coffee bar. Cross-Functional Partnership 
• Partner with the Director of Culinary on menu development, recipe standards, food cost, and bakery/ sourdough program consistency. 
• Report regularly to the Director of Retail on financial performance, operational health, and strategic priorities. • Lead pre-opening setup, staffing, and training, and drive a successful grand opening.

QUALIFICATIONS 

• 5+ years of experience as a General Manager of a full-service restaurant with an active bar program. 
• Demonstrated ownership of a restaurant P&L, including budgeting, forecasting, and cost management. 
• Experience managing multi-daypart operations; breakfast/brunch experience strongly preferred. 
• Working knowledge of beer, wine, and spirits programs, including compliance and responsible service practices. • Passion for or experience with specialty coffee, scratch baking, or pizza programs is a strong plus. 
• Current food safety certification (ServSafe or equivalent) and state-required alcohol service certification (e.g., TIPS), or ability to obtain promptly upon hire.
