Shift Manager

Earls Kitchen + Bar

Some 36 years ago, Leroy “Bus” Earl Fuller and his son Stanley Earl Fuller had a simple idea: to create a laid-back burger and beer joint filled with warm, friendly people. The first Earls restaurant opened in Edmonton, Alberta in 1984, and it quickly took off — and Earls has never looked back, opening locations across Canada and all over the US. While much has changed since Bus and Stan opened the first Earls restaurant all those years ago, many things are the same — Earls is still a family-owned business, run by great people who are passionate about serving delicious food and drinks in an inviting environment.

Today, Earls is based in Vancouver, British Columbia and has 67 locations across North America. Earls remains committed to offering guests premium globally-inspired food, with exceptional service in an authentic atmosphere.

Shift Leaders at Earls have their finger on the pulse. They’re experts in bringing the Earls Experience to life in the stores, and naturally inspire those around them to do the same. Shift Leaders have a passion for food and beverage, relentlessly pursue memorable guest experiences, and bring the core value of ‘TEAM’ to the restaurant mix. They lead the charge in seeing Earls become the most loved and best run restaurant in North America.
