Under the leadership of the General Manager, you will manage the daily operations and staff of a Wendy’s restaurant with a specific focus on staffing, training and scheduling, all of which will help build and retain a 5-star team.
What We’re Looking For
We want Assistant Managers who:
• Enjoy working with people and bring a positive, friendly attitude to every shift
• Lead by example with punctuality, reliability, and strong work ethic
• Follow uniform and appearance standards with pride
• Thrive in a team environment and help others succeed
• Smile easily and enjoy creating a welcoming atmosphere
• Take ownership of keeping the restaurant clean, organized, and guest ready
• Stay calm under pressure and help guide the team through busy rushes
• Support training, coaching, and daily operations with professionalism
What you bring to the table:
You’re willing and able to:
• Travel to other Wendy’s locations (restaurants, area office, etc.) as needed.
• Stand and move for most - if not all - of your shift.
• Lift up to 25-50 lbs. now and then.
• Handle weather-related moments like rain at the drive-thru, taking trash out in the summer, etc.
• Wear a headset, use other restaurant equipment such as a register or grill, and follow brand standards and guidelines.
We get it. We get you.

The Wendy’s Story
First of all, yes, Wendy is a real person. And a pretty special one, being the daughter of our founder Dave Thomas. Today, she is one of the most involved and successful franchise owners in the Wendy’s enterprise. We think Dave would be proud. Back in 1969, he looked around at all other hamburger joints and was like, “Nah. People deserve better.” At the time, other quick-service restaurants were using frozen beef and mass-producing food. Not Dave. His approach of serving fresh, made-to-order hamburgers changed the game. And his can’t-stop-won’t-stop commitment to making customers happy drives everything we do today.
