The Firehouse, a family-owned and locally operated business since 1980, is on the lookout for a General Manager who can do far more than oversee restaurant operations. We are looking for a leader who can develop people, build strong teams, protect culture, uphold standards, and help carry our mission forward.

Our ideal candidate understands that great restaurants are built by great people, and great leaders create other leaders. This role is for someone who is passionate about coaching others, helping Team Members grow, and building an environment where people can thrive both personally and professionally.

We are not looking for someone to reinvent who we are. We are looking for someone who can embrace our values, strengthen our culture, and build upon the foundation that has allowed The Firehouse to serve our community for decades.

Benefits include:

  • Work with GREAT PEOPLE in a culture anchored by strong core values
  • Competitive compensation for qualified candidates
  • Paid training
  • Paid vacation and personal days
  • Free meals
  • Closed EVERY Sunday
  • Closed Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day

Primary responsibilities include:

  • Develop high-value Team Members and future leaders
  • Lead and build high-performing Teams
  • Maintain a culture of accountability, growth, and hospitality
  • Lead daily execution and operational excellence
  • Manage scheduling and labor budgets
  • Oversee food cost controls and inventory systems
  • Maintain facility cleanliness, organization, and standards
  • Ensure every guest receives Great Food and Famous Hospitality

Leadership expectations include:

  • Lead by example and earn trust through your actions
  • Practice servant leadership by putting the growth and success of your Team first
  • Build strong Teams and develop future leaders
  • Uphold standards while treating others with respect and dignity
  • Make decisions consistent with our values and principles
  • Foster a culture of accountability, learning, and teamwork
