    4. Guest Experience

    • Ensure every guest receives fast, friendly, and accurate service
    • Address issues in real time and recover the experience
    • Use feedback to improve operations

    5. Operational Standards

    • Execute systems and processes consistently
    • Be audit-ready every day

    • Internal promotions happening from within your team
    • High guest satisfaction and repeat business

    What You Bring

    • Experience running high-volume shifts ($1M–$3M+ annual volume typical)
    • Proven ability to lead teams and deliver consistent results
    • Strong work ethic—you’re comfortable being on your feet and in the action
    • Ability to manage both people and numbers

    Non-Negotiables

    • Willing to work nights, weekends, and peak business hours
    • Leads from the front—this is not a back-office role
    • Holds high standards and addresses issues directly
