Overview

As a Shift Supervisor, you are building your leadership skills and style. You will lead restaurant operations during scheduled shifts and support training for all new hires, program rollouts, and standards in your restaurant. At times, you will be the most senior squad member working the shift, and you will be responsible for ensuring that the team performs all essential tasks, provides outstanding guest experiences, and contributes to smooth restaurant operations. You will support restaurant management in overall restaurant operations and serve as a leader for the squad who work alongside you. You will provide feedback, answer questions, and give guidance. As a Shift Supervisor your objective is to model, teach, and demonstrate MOD’s purpose in all interactions. You are responsible for setting the squad up for success for the shift, during training, and as things change in the restaurant. You will lead by example, focus on directing the squad, and deliver the best possible MOD experience on every shift.

In this position, you will flex to the needs of the restaurant and the squad, sometimes leading, sometimes doing, but always keeping the MOD experience in the forefront of your mind.

• The Shift Supervisor is responsible for using and referencing MOD tools and standards to ensure the food is safe in both Back of House and Front of House.
• Listen, acknowledge, and do your best to resolve any squad member and/or guest concerns. Escalate issues that require resolution to the AM or GM as appropriate.
• Manage cash within the shift in an accurate and responsible manner including making change, accessing cash in the safe, processing refunds, etc.
• Take inventory and place orders as needed and supported by the GM.
• Adhere to all Opening/Midday/Closing shift checklists and use all tools available to execute requirements in a timely manner.
• Regularly review email to stay updated on and communicate any information from the Slice (and other relevant sources) for squad members to be effective in their roles during the shift.

Required Qualifications

• Must have a minimum of one (1) year of customer service or restaurant experience.
• Must have demonstrated success as a mentor, trainer or informal leader.
• Have a proven ability to prioritize and make decisions.
• Must be at least 18 years old
• Proven success in following and enforcing processes and standards; correcting and coaching in a compassionate manner.
