Restaurant Manager

Restaurant Manager – Culver’s of Prescott

We’re not hiring a manager—we’re looking to invest in a leader.

At Culver’s of Prescott, we don’t hire external managers often. But when we meet someone who aligns with our values, thrives in a high-performance culture, and sees leadership as a responsibility — not just a title — we make room.

This is a rare opportunity to join a fast-growing, locally owned franchise network where your leadership will be developed, your limits will be tested, and your potential will be uncapped.

If you’re looking for a comfortable job where the bar is low, this isn’t it. If you’re looking for a place where your work ethic, leadership, and results determine your trajectory — you’ve found it.

Why Join Culver’s of Prescott?

We’re not here to hand out big salaries as a starting point.

We’re here to build leaders who earn them — and more.

At Culver’s of Prescott, our mission is clear: “We genuinely care so that every guest who chooses Culver’s leaves happy.” That care starts with our team. We invest in leaders who show up hungry, lead from the front, and commit to excellence.

You’ll be part of a team built on our IDEAL core values. These values are non-negotiable:

Integrity – Do the right thing. Every time. No excuses..

Discipline – Follow and enforce the SOPs systems that drive performance.

Excellence – Set the bar high — then raise it.

Alignment – Keep the team focused on the mission and vision.

Leadership – Hustle, inspire, and develop those around you.

These values aren’t just part of the job — they are the job.

In 1984, Craig and Lea Culver, along with Craig’s parents George and Ruth, opened the very first Culver's in the family’s beloved hometown of Sauk City, Wisconsin, and began serving ButterBurgers® and Frozen Custard.
Craveable as our signature combination is, the Culver family knew right away that although the business is centered around the food, it is really about the people. While folks can vividly recall the first time they bit into a ButterBurger or tasted a scoop of rich, creamy Fresh Frozen Custard, it’s our way of welcoming guests that truly makes Culver’s delicious.
