GENERAL MANAGER – NEW RESTAURANT OPENING

BUILD THE TEAM. OPEN THE DOORS. LEAD SOMETHING NEW.

Ready to put your stamp on a brand-new restaurant from day one?

We're recruiting a General Manager for an exciting new restaurant opening in Daytona Beach, FL with an established, growing Asian-inspired fast-casual concept.

This isn't a takeover of an existing operation. You'll have the opportunity to help launch a brand-new location, build and develop your team, establish the culture, and lead the restaurant through opening and beyond.

If you're a hands-on restaurant leader who loves developing people, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and wants to grow with a company that's continuing to expand, this could be a great next move.

Position: General Manager

Location: Daytona Beach, FL

Status: New Restaurant Opening

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT HERE

• New Restaurant Opening – build your team and culture from the ground up
• Growing national restaurant concept with continued expansion
• Made-to-order menu featuring fresh ingredients and bold, wok-fired flavors
• No late nights or early mornings
• Competitive compensation
• Medical and dental benefits
• 401(k)
• Vacation and sick pay
• Generous meal discounts
• Strong training and development
• Excellent opportunity for advancement with a company that promotes from within
• Closed Christmas and Thanksgiving

WHAT YOU'LL DO

As General Manager, you'll take ownership of the restaurant's people, performance, and guest experience. You'll be highly visible in the operation—developing your team, maintaining standards, managing financial performance, and creating an environment where both employees and guests want to come back.

You'll:

• Recruit, train, coach, and develop a strong opening team
• Lead daily restaurant operations with a hands-on approach
• Create an engaging, accountable team culture
• Deliver exceptional food quality and guest service
• Manage labor, food costs, inventory, and restaurant financial performance
• Maintain high standards for food safety, cleanliness, and operational execution
• Drive sales and build relationships within the Daytona Beach community
• Develop future leaders and create a strong bench for continued growth

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 3+ years of restaurant management experience, with General Manager experience strongly preferred
• Experience leading a high-volume fast-casual or casual dining operation
• New restaurant opening experience is a plus
• Strong financial and operational acumen
• Proven ability to recruit, coach, and retain great teams
• Hands-on leadership style—you lead from the floor, not the office
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills
• Passion for hospitality, food quality, and developing people
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, growth-oriented environment

BE PART OF SOMETHING NEW IN DAYTONA BEACH

There's something different about opening a restaurant from the ground up. You aren't inheriting someone else's culture—you have the opportunity to help create it.

If you're ready for your next leadership opportunity and want to join a growing restaurant organization as it enters the Daytona Beach, FL market, we'd love to connect.
