Assistant Manager

Where Flavor Meets Convenience

Are you a high-energy leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment? We are looking for a dedicated Assistant Manager to lead our DAK's C-Stores and Church’s Texas Chicken team.

This isn't your typical standalone restaurant. Operating within DAK’s Market means you’ll be at the heart of a community hub, serving loyal locals and travelers alike. If you have a passion for "The Original Maker of Great Chicken" and a knack for operational excellence, we want to talk to you.

Key Responsibilities:

• Team Leadership: Recruit, train, and mentor a team of shift leads and crew members.
• Operational Excellence: Maintain high standards for food safety, cleanliness, and speed of service.
• Inventory & Profitability: Manage labor costs, food waste, and inventory levels to ensure the location hits its financial goals.
• Guest Experience: Solve problems on the fly and ensure every guest leaves satisfied with their meal

What You Bring to the Table

• Experience: At least 2+ years of management experience in QSR (Quick Service Restaurant) or retail food service.
• Leadership Style: A "lead-by-example" attitude. You aren't afraid to jump on the line or help at the register during a rush.
• Skills: Strong understanding of P&L statements, food safety regulations (ServSafe certification is a plus), and scheduling.
• Vibe: Professional, upbeat, and able to handle the unique pace of a restaurant-within-a-market setting.

Why Join Us?
