Job Description

Wow Bao is launching a new food manufacturing plant—and we’re looking for an Office Manager to help us build something extraordinary from the ground up. The plant is in Forest City, North Carolina and is slated to open this Fall 2025. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a start-up, shape daily operations, and contribute a culture of caring that values people and performance. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and enjoys wearing multiple hats.

  • Coordinating projects, meetings, and company events such as new hire orientation training, ensuring seamless execution
  • Order and maintain office and plant supplies , anticipating operational needs
  • Supporting leadership with administrative tasks, reporting, scheduling and special initiatives
  • Help foster a positive workplace culture through thoughtful communication and organization
  • Innovative. Fast Pace. Growth.

Wow Bao has once again been recognized as a 2023 Fast Casual Top 100 Movers & Shakers! Ranked no. 1 in 2019 and 2022, we are the only brand to have taken home the honor more than once. This year we were privileged to be ranked no. 4, and the leading Asian fast-casual concept.

At Wow Bao, we believe that every day deserves a big, bold serving of WOW. So we’ve made it our mission to shake up the sea of sameness and bring a fresh, exciting new spin to the fast-casual experience. Join the fastest growing Asian virtual kitchen concept in the US! Our virtual kitchen concept has launched 600+ locations and is growing rapidly. Our retail / grocery business is also experiencing unprecedented growth - our Frozen Bao and Potstickers will be in thousands of grocery stores across the US by the end of 2023.

Wow Bao is an innovative Asian fast casual restaurant that fuses superior hospitality and industry leading technology to deliver signature flavors “at the speed of life.” Our menu features rice bowls, pan-seared potstickers, dumplings, soups, and our iconic Bao – steamed hot Asian buns with a variety of savory and sweet fillings. We foster a culture of caring. Whether it’s our guests or our employees, we put people first. We strive to inspire, to motivate, and to appreciate one another every day. We live by the golden rule and treat everyone with kindness, empathy, respect, and a healthy dose of humor. We take our work, not ourselves, seriously.
