Job description

Some roles appear at exactly the right moment.

This is an opportunity for a hospitality leader who has mastered operations and is ready to step into broader influence. We are partnering with several restaurant and hospitality groups seeking Directors of Operations to lead multi-unit portfolios with intention, clarity, and heart.

These roles are designed for leaders who do not just manage restaurants, but build cultures, elevate teams, and create consistency without losing soul.

Compensation & Location

  • Base salary around $150,000+ , plus performance bonus and full benefits
  • Relocation may be required or supported, depending on the opportunity
  • Roles span multiple markets and concepts

What You’ll Be Trusted With

  • Overseeing multi-unit restaurant operations with full ownership of performance
  • Partnering closely with ownership and executive teams to drive growth and stability
  • Developing General Managers and leadership teams through hands-on coaching
  • Creating operational rhythm, accountability, and standards that scale
  • Owning financial performance including P&L oversight, labor, and cost controls
  • Being present in the field and visible to teams, not operating from behind a desk
  • What We’re Looking For

  • Director of Operations, Regional Director, or multi-unit leadership experience in hospitality or restaurants
  • Your most recent two years must be with a hospitality or restaurant brand
  • Experience leading multiple locations within a structured brand or growing group
  • Strong financial acumen paired with people-first leadership
  • A grounded, confident presence that earns trust quickly
  • Someone open to relocation and growth, not just maintaining the status quo
  • Why This Role Feels Different

    These are not “maintenance” roles. These are seats at the table.

    The right leader will be stepping into organizations that are growing, evolving, and intentionally investing in leadership. You will be given room to influence, improve, and leave your fingerprint on the business.

    If you’ve felt like your current role has outgrown you, or you’ve been quietly calling in something bigger, this may be the conversation meant to find you.

    Confidential search. Qualified candidates will be contacted directly.

    Sometimes the right opportunity doesn’t chase you. It meets you when you’re ready.
