About Ugly Bagel

At Ugly Bagel, we don’t care about picture-perfect, bagels—we care about craft, flavor, fast-paced service, and bagels made the right way. We’re a high-volume, fast-casual concept where morning rushes move fast and energy stays high.

We know the restaurant industry has a habit of burning out great leaders. We operate differently. We’re looking for an operational leader who wants to coach a great crew, own their store’s success, and step out of the store at the end of the day knowing their time and boundaries are respected.

What You’ll Get Out of the Role

• Real Work-Life Balance: No midnight shifts, no mandatory 60-hour weeks.
• Modern Tech & Operations: We use modern scheduling, inventory, and hiring tools so you spend less time on admin paperwork and more time leading your team.
• Growth & Mentorship: Direct access to ownership and leadership, with clear pathways to multi-unit or district management as we expand.
• Perks That Matter: We're flexible with time off, health benefits options, 401k, and lots of other benefits and perks.

What You’ll Be Doing (The Real Job)

You aren't just putting out fires—you are the operational center of the store. As Store Manager, you will:

• Lead as a Coach: Hire, train, and mentor a high-energy crew. You view management as developing people, creating a positive shift culture where crew members actually want to show up.
• Master the Rush: Own speed-of-service and product quality during morning and weekend peaks. You set the rhythm and lead from the front when line times build up.
• Manage Prime Costs: Keep labor and food costs on target without sacrificing quality or understaffing your crew.
• Drive Store Standards: Ensure food safety standards, cleanliness, and store presentation stay top-tier.

Who You Are

• 1+ years of management experience in a fast-casual, QSR, bakery, or high-volume food service environment (Assistant Managers ready for their next step are encouraged to apply!).
• A Natural Problem-Solver: You stay calm when 3 line cooks call out or the espresso machine glitches during a morning rush.
• A People-First Leader: You believe in clear feedback, empathy, and building a team that stays rather than constantly churning through crew members.
• Data & Metric Conscious: You know how to read a basic P&L, set labor schedules to sales trends, and manage inventory.

Our Interview Process (Fast & Respectful)

We know your time is valuable. Our hiring process takes less than a week:

• Intro Call (15 mins): Quick phone chat about your background and what you're looking for.
• In-Person & Floor Walk (60 mins): Meet the leadership team, walk the floor during a shift, and get a feel for the store culture.
