Assistant Manager

Hey there—we’re in need of a stellar Assistant Manager to join our team.

Ready to be the second-in-command of a fast-paced, fun environment? Are you an operations guru with a track record of supporting and cultivating a team of all-stars? And are you ready to embark on a career devoted to the pursuit of fun? If so, read on and see how we roll. The Assistant Manager serves as team captain for a league of extraordinary players. They’re responsible for day-to-day operations while maintaining core parts of our business—like developing the growth of our bowling league relationships. As crusaders of service, these individuals seek out customer feedback to ensure the entire staff is providing a world-class experience.

Our Assistant Managers aid in hiring, training, and developing all departments—delegating duties when necessary and taking the reins in absence of the General Manager. They promote a fun, safe, work environment and strive for high team morale. The hours are similar to those of a restaurant manager—lots of nights and weekends in a fast-paced environment.
