General Manager

Are you a high-volume restaurant General Manager or senior Assistant Manager in Oklahoma ready to trade late-night kitchen closes for complete business ownership?

Join our team as a General Manager in the greater Tulsa Area (Vinita, Bristow, Sapulpa, or Hominy). Swap the endless table turns of high-volume casual dining concepts like Chili’s, Applebee’s, or Texas Roadhouse for full P&L accountability over a high-volume convenience and multi-brand food service operation.

As General Manager, you aren’t just running a store—you are the Chief Executive of a multi-faceted business ecosystem. In addition to fuel and center-store retail, you will directly own and operate a robust, multi-brand restaurant portfolio embedded right inside your location, featuring:

• Krispy Krunchy Chicken
• Sbarro
• DAK's Market Original Recipes

If you’re a proven restaurant leader who knows front-of-house hospitality, kitchen operations, strict labor control, and food cost management, this is your opportunity to leverage your food service background into a lucrative GM career with expanded retail ownership.
