Dog Haus Biergarten - General Manager

Dog Haus Biergarten isn't your average restaurant gig. We serve gourmet hot dogs, elevated sausages, burgers, chicken, and plant-based options alongside our renowned Bad-Ass Breakfast Burrito concept - all backed by a full bar featuringHaus cocktails and craft beer in a Biergarten environment. We take the operation behind it just as seriously as the food in front of it.

We're a locally and family-owned multi-unit franchise group growing in the Valley, and we're looking for an experienced General Manager who leads with accountability, runs a tight ship, and actually wants to be part of something being built - not just maintained.

Dog Haus has been named to Fast Casual's Top 10 Movers and Shakers list since 2020 and is a Franchise Times Top Brand to Buy. Our Arizona franchise group has earned Operator of the Year, Marketer of the Year, and Business Leader of the Year recognition - and we're just getting started in the Valley.

What you'll own

You'll run the full operation of your location with direct support from our District Manager. That means:
Recruiting, developing, and leading your team
Labor and COGs performance - you're accountable to the numbers
Inventory management and ordering
P&L oversight and budget management
Forecasting and scheduling
Health, safety, and compliance standards
Customer experience and conflict resolution

What we offer

$60,000 - $70,000+ annually, commensurate with experience
Structured schedule: five tens - while most restaurant managers are grinding 65+ hour weeks, our GMs are building and leading the team that runs the floor. We believe in leaders of leaders, not managers doing every shift solo.
You'll be hands-on during peak periods - this isn't a suit-and-spreadsheet role - but you'll have AGMs and/or shift leads under you to develop and rely on
Health insurance
Paid time off - and we actually mean it. We have high standards and we expect a lot from our GMs, but we believe in giving our team the tools, support, and rest they need to perform at that level long-term. Burning people out isn't a strategy.
Growth opportunity within an actively expanding franchise group
Tenured managers are eligible for performance-based incentive compensation
Direct reporting relationship with our District Manager, and ownership that has actually worked in restaurants - we're not absentee investors. When you have a problem, the people above you have lived it.

What we're looking for

Proven restaurant management experience in a high-volume environment
Strong leadership and team development track record
Comfort with P&L, labor management, and operational metrics
Excellent communication and problem-solving skills
Basic computer proficiency
Full availability required - our GMs work better shifts by design, but you're responsible for your location 24/7. Evenings and weekends aren't optional, they're part of owning the role.

Bonus points if you bring:

Experience with third-party delivery platforms
Bar management or craft beer knowledge
Local area marketing or social media experience
New restaurant opening experience

Join #TheAbsoluteWurst team. It's a real job, a real culture, and a real opportunity to grow with a brand that's just getting started in the Valley.
