Job Title: General Manager – Wendy’s

Location: Elkins, WV

Are you a hands-on restaurant leader who thrives on building great teams and delivering exceptional service? We are looking for an experienced General Manager to lead our Wendy’s restaurant team in Elkins, WV .

As General Manager, you will run the day-to-day operations, owning everything from guest experience and drive-thru speed to P&L results, food/labor cost controls, and team development. This is an active, in-position leadership role—working alongside your team on the floor to drive excellence, not managing from a back office.

• Own the P&L: Manage sales performance, control food, labor, and paper costs, and drive controllable profit to hit target metrics.
  

• Develop Your Team: Recruit, hire, train, and mentor assistant managers, shift supervisors, and crew members to build strong internal bench strength for promotion.
  

• Maintain Brand & Safety Standards: Ensure food safety compliance, lead operational evaluations, and seamlessly execute new product rollouts and brand programs.
  

• Hit Bonus Targets: Drive sales growth, profit goals, and customer satisfaction metrics to maximize your quarterly bonus payouts.
  

• Experience: 3+ years of General Manager experience in a fast-food or QSR environment with a drive-thru.
  

• Financial Acumen: Proven ability to manage a store P&L, understand food and labor costs, and act on performance metrics.
  

• Hands-on Leadership: A coaching mindset and a track record of working shoulder-to-shoulder with crew members to lead by example.
  

• Certifications: ServSafe Certified (or willing to obtain upon hire). High School Diploma or GED required.
  

• Flexibility: Ability to work standard QSR hours, including nights, weekends, and holidays as business needs dictate.
  

• Base Salary: $60,000 – $65,000 / year
  

• Bonus Program: Quarterly bonus opportunities based on sales, controllable profit, and customer survey results.
  

• Health & Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.
  

• Retirement: 401(k) plan with company match (50% match up to 5%).
  

• Paid Time Off: Paid vacation (2 weeks to start, increasing with tenure) plus a paid birthday.
  

• Holiday Perks: Closed Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day; reduced hours on Christmas Eve, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day.
