Job Description
Restaurant Area Director – Multi-Unit QSR
Location: New Haven to Bridgeport, CT
If you’re ready to own a market, build elite General Managers, and drive real results , this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
We’re hiring a Restaurant Area Director to lead 4–7 QSR locations for a growing, people-first organization. This role is built for a proven multi-unit leader who wants autonomy, influence, and upward momentum —not micromanagement.
You’ll be a hands-on, field-based leader with the authority to make decisions, develop leaders, and move the business forward.
Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive compensation package ($90K - $100K + generous bonus)
- 401(k) with company match
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- Paid time off
- Flexible schedule
- Values-driven, performance-focused culture
What’s In It for You
- Real ownership of your area—run it like a business, not a checklist
- Direct impact on results with full P&L responsibility
- Develop leaders, not babysit managers —focus on coaching GMs and building bench strength
- Visible role with senior leadership —your voice and ideas matter
- Career runway with a growing organization that promotes from within
- People-first culture that values strong leadership, accountability, and balance
- Flexibility —outcomes matter more than clock-watching
What You’ll Do
- Lead, coach, and develop General Managers across 4–7 restaurants
- Drive consistency in operations, food quality, service, and brand execution
- Own area-level performance including P&L, labor, and cost controls
- Use KPIs and financials to identify opportunities and execute action plans
- Build a strong leadership pipeline through talent development and succession planning
- Partner with HR and Training to drive engagement, retention, and accountability
- Ensure compliance with safety, sanitation, and operational standards
- Lead change during growth, transitions, and performance turnarounds
What We’re Looking For
- 8+ years of restaurant management experience
- 4+ years in a multi-unit leadership role
- 4+ years of direct P&L ownership
- Confident, coach-driven leadership style
- Strong analytical and decision-making skills
- Thrives in fast-paced, high-accountability environments
- Bilingual (Spanish) +++
Why Join Us?
This is an opportunity to make a real impact—shaping leaders, influencing growth, and helping build a high-performing restaurant organization where people want to stay and grow.**
