Fast Casual General Manager

Houston, TX – IAH Airport | $55,000–$70,000 + Benefits

We are looking for a strong, hands-on General Manager to lead a high-volume fast casual restaurant inside George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH). This is a great opportunity for an experienced restaurant leader who enjoys a fast-paced environment, developing a strong team, and being actively involved in daily operations.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead all day-to-day restaurant operations
  • Recruit, train, coach, and develop a strong management and hourly team
  • Create a positive culture focused on accountability, teamwork, and hospitality
  • Maintain high standards for food quality, cleanliness, safety, and guest service
  • Work alongside the team during busy periods and be visible on the floor
  • Manage scheduling and labor based on business needs
  • Oversee inventory, ordering, food cost, waste, and other controllable expenses
  • Understand and manage the restaurant's P&L and financial performance
  • Drive sales while maintaining operational and brand standards
  • Handle guest concerns professionally and create a strong customer experience
  • Ensure compliance with company, airport, health, and safety requirements
  • Hold the team accountable while recognizing and developing top performers

What We’re Looking For

  • Previous General Manager experience in QSR, fast casual, or another high-volume restaurant environment
  • Strong leadership and team-development skills
  • Comfortable managing a fast-paced operation with significant daily traffic
  • Financially aware with experience managing labor, food cost, inventory, and P&L
  • Hands-on leadership style — this is not an office-based GM position
  • Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
  • Guest-focused with the ability to build a strong service culture
  • Ability to work a flexible schedule based on the needs of the restaurant
  • Must be able to meet all requirements necessary to work inside IAH Airport

Compensation & Benefits

Salary: $55,000–$70,000 annually, based on experience
Benefits: Health insurance available

If you are a strong restaurant leader who enjoys developing people, running a busy operation, and being part of the action, this could be a great next step in your career.
