For example, the Guest Service Department Manager's responsibilities may include ensuring Crew and Managers deliver a great customer experience, that sales promotions are done well, that all service staff is trained in service procedures, and that the Front Counter McCafe and Drive-Thru areas are organized for the best service. The Kitchen Department Manager's responsibilities may include ensuring the restaurant delivers great quality food to customers fast, that food is always safe, that food cost is controlled, and that all kitchen staff is trained in production procedures, including new items that are added to the menu. The People Department Manager's responsibilities may include ensuring the restaurant hires a qualified crew, trains them well, and schedules them to meet restaurant sales and profit goals. This manager's responsibilities may also include making sure staff get off to a good start at the restaurant and that they are recognized and motivated throughout their time working there.
