To eat. To laugh. To share. That’s why guests come to our neighborhood pizzeria, Savage Pizza, in Norcross—fresh, handcrafted New York–style pies, friendly faces, and a place that feels like home. The Shift Lead is responsible for overseeing daily restaurant operations, leading and supporting team members, and ensuring exceptional guest experiences. This role helps maintain service, food quality, cleanliness, and operational standards while fostering a positive, team‑oriented environment.

• Maintain a clean, organized restaurant through a “clean as you go” mentality
• Complete all opening and closing administrative duties when serving as Manager on Duty (MOD)

• ServSafe Certification highly preferred
• A passion for creating a great work environment and coaching a winning team.
• A guest‑first mindset with a genuine desire to make someone’s day—one slice at a time.

• High personal standards and the ability to motivate a team to meet them.
• The adaptability and excitement to thrive in a fast‑paced, always‑changing restaurant environment.
• A valid driver’s license and reliable transportation (for occasional bank deposits).
• A desire to grow with a company and build something special in the Norcross community.
• Must be able to work 40 hours per week, weekends and holidays.
