GENERAL MANAGER

Pensacola, FL | $75K–$80K Base + Bonus

BIG ENERGY. BIG VOLUME. BIG OPPORTUNITY.

Are you the kind of restaurant leader who walks in and raises the energy of the entire building?

Do you know how to turn a busy dining room into a great guest experience, develop managers into stronger leaders, and look at a P&L and know exactly where the opportunity is?

If you’re ready to own the operation—not just run the shift—keep reading. We’re partnering with an established, high-volume casual dining concept looking for a confident, charismatic General Manager to lead its Pensacola, FL operation.

This is a fast-paced environment with a strong food and beverage program, a loyal guest base, and plenty of opportunity for a great leader to make their mark.

WHY YOU’LL WANT THIS ROLE

-        $75,000–$80,000 base + bonus potential

-        High-volume, high-energy operation

-        Make a measurable impact on the business

-        Real opportunity for career growth

-        Company-paid medical, dental & vision

-        401(k) with company match

And perhaps most importantly: you’ll have the autonomy and support to actually lead.

WHAT YOU’LL OWN

This isn’t a “keep the wheels turning” GM position.

You’ll be responsible for the people, performance, and profitability of the restaurant.

Your day-to-day will include:

• Owning the P&L, labor, food cost, inventory, and controllable expenses
• Recruiting, training, motivating, and retaining great people

• Maintaining high standards for food, service, cleanliness, and safety
• Building relationships with guests and creating an experience that keeps them coming back
• Identifying opportunities to improve operations and financial performance
• Keeping the team focused, energized, and moving forward—even when the restaurant is slammed

YOU’RE THE ONE IF…

You’re more than someone who can manage a restaurant.

You’re a business-minded hospitality leader.

You bring:

• 3+ years of General Manager or senior restaurant leadership experience
• High-volume and/or full-service restaurant experience
• Proven success leading and developing teams
• Strong P&L and financial management skills
• Experience managing labor, food cost, and operational expenses
