Department Manager

This job posting is for a managerial position at a restaurant that operates under the McDonald's brand but is owned and managed by an independent franchisee, separate from McDonald's USA. The franchisee holds the license to use McDonald's logos and food products, but the franchise operates as a distinct company with its own employment policies and management structure, independent from McDonald's corporate business. If you are selected for this job, your direct employer will be the franchisee, who is responsible for all employment-related decisions including hiring, firing, supervising, scheduling, and managing staff.

Additionally, the company supports employees in balancing work and personal goals through flexible scheduling and educational assistance programs. Specifically, the Restaurant Manager role includes responsibility for overseeing various departments such as Guest Service, Kitchen, and People (Human Resources). Each department manager focuses on different aspects of restaurant operations: enhancing customer experiences, ensuring food quality and safety, and managing staffing and crew development respectively. Managers are expected to lead shifts, ensuring fast, friendly, and accurate service every day. The position suits candidates with prior leadership experience, particularly in restaurant, retail, or hospitality sectors, who bring positive energy, team-oriented attitudes, and a passion for working in a dynamic, customer-focused environment.

Alongside competitive wages, managers enjoy a robust benefits package that includes paid vacation, holidays, sabbaticals, medical, dental, and vision insurance, as well as education assistance through McDonald's Archways to Opportunity program. Additional benefits such as flexible spending plans, disability insurance, life and accident policies, paid leaves, service awards, and adoption assistance are included, underscoring the company's commitment to employee well-being and career development.
