Job description

Assistant Restaurant Manager — The Stand Encino 17000 Ventura Blvd, Encino, CA 91316, USA

The Stand has grown to 22 locations across California and Texas, and we're not slowing down. We're looking for an Assistant Restaurant Manager who's ready to own a shift, help develop a team, and grow into a General Manager role.

If you've managed a restaurant team and you're tired of working for a company that doesn't actually promote from within, this is worth your time.

What You'll Own as an Assistant Restaurant Manager

• Shift leadership and a true point person, front of house, kitchen and guests
• Team development: training and coaching
• Daily operations: support, ordering, opening/closing
• Guest experience and complaint resolution
• Cleanliness, food safety, and brand standards
• Total Restaurant awareness — you'll understand how your shift impacts the stores success

What We're Looking For: an Assistant Restaurant Manager

• 1+ year of restaurant management or AGM experience
• Strong communicator who leads by example on the floor
• Someone who takes ownership, not someone who waits to be told what to do
• 21+ years old, full-time availability including weekends

Compensation & Benefits:

• Tip pool (~$5–7/hr average) + performance bonus
• Up to $30.00 per hour
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k)+Company Match (We help invest in your future)
• Paid vacation and sick time
• Meal credit on shift, employee discount off shift
• Monthly cell phone allowance + Shoes for Crews reimbursement
• Full-Time Position

The Path:

We promote from within — aggressively. Our GMs came up through the AGM role. With 22 locations and more opening, there is real room to grow.

We are an equal opportunity employer and consider all qualified applicants, including those with criminal histories, per applicable law.
