Assistant General Manager – GM Development Track

$90,000–$100,000 Base Salary + Bonus | Targeted GM Advancement

We are seeking an experienced Assistant General Manager / senior restaurant leader for a high-volume upscale casual restaurant.

This role is specifically designed for someone with the background and leadership ability to develop into a General Manager position, potentially within approximately 6 months based on performance and readiness.

We are looking for a proven leader from an upscale casual, polished casual, steakhouse, or comparable high-volume full-service environment who already understands how to run the business and is ready for greater ownership.

What We’re Looking For

  • 4+ years of progressive restaurant management experience
  • Current or recent AGM, Senior Manager, Restaurant Manager, or GM experience
  • Upscale/polished casual or comparable high-volume full-service background
  • Experience with restaurants generating approximately $8M+ annually preferred
  • Strong employment stability and progressive responsibility
  • Full P&L and financial understanding
  • Strong labor, scheduling, inventory, and cost-control experience
  • Proven success developing managers and hourly employees
  • Comfortable leading both FOH and supporting BOH operations
  • Strong guest presence and hospitality mindset
  • Professional, hands-on, humble leadership style
  • Ready to develop toward General Manager responsibility quickly

The Opportunity

  • Lead day-to-day restaurant operations alongside the General Manager
  • Develop and coach the management and hourly teams
  • Take ownership of labor, service, staffing, guest recovery, and operational performance
  • Partner closely with culinary leadership
  • Learn Burton’s systems, culture, and operating standards
  • Prepare to take on full General Manager responsibility as readiness is demonstrated

Compensation & Growth

  • $90,000–$100,000 base salary
  • Bonus opportunity
  • Medical benefits
  • Paid time off
  • Structured leadership training
  • Strong internal-promotion culture
  • Targeted development toward GM within approximately 6 months
  • Continued opportunities as the company expands

This is not intended for someone looking to remain an AGM long-term. The goal is to identify a proven restaurant leader who can learn the organization, demonstrate strong performance, and become a future General Manager.

If you’re already operating near the GM level and are looking for a company where there is a realistic path to your own restaurant, we’d like to speak with you.
