General Manager

Description

OVERVIEW
General Managers are the heartbeat of a Birdcall restaurant — running the show on guest experience, food quality, team culture, and the bottom line, all at once. You'll lead a crew of 20–100, turn new hires into your best shift leads, and make sure every guest walks out already planning their next visit. Birdcall is growing fast — new stores and new concepts every year — and GMs get to grow right along with it.

PAY

$60,000–$75,000/year + Quarterly Bonuses Salary exempt, full-time, and rewarded for real results. Hit your numbers, get paid for it — every quarter.
