  • Experienced in both franchise operations and food service:
    • 5+ years in the franchise industry, preferable in food and/or beverages
    • 5+ years in food service operations, with strong operational acumen
  • Proven ability to influence others both with and without formal authority
  • A strong communicator and relationship builder
  • Equally comfortable in the details (data, budgets, SOPs) and the big picture (strategy, culture, brand standards, legal)
  • Adaptable, hands-on, and energized by a fast-moving, collaborative environment
  • Have a bachelor’s degree in business, service, marketing, finance or related field
