Job description

General Manager – Five Guys (Life’s Food Franchise)

Location: 1923 N Main St, High Point, NC 27262, USA

Total Comp: $58,000 - $63,000 Base + Uncapped P.A.C.E. Bonus Potential

Are You a "People Person" with a Shrewd Business Mind?

At Life’s Food, we don’t just hire managers; we partner with leaders. As a premier Five Guys franchisee with 35 locations, we are looking for a General Manager in High Point who wants to run their restaurant like a high-performance business.

We aren't looking for someone to hide in an office. We want a high-energy leader who can build a legendary team culture while maintaining a "shrewd" eye on the bottom line.

The Life’s Food Advantage: The P.A.C.E. Bonus

Most restaurants offer "profit sharing," but we do it better. We reward your efficiency through our P.A.C.E. Program (Profit After Controllable Expenses). Why P.A.C.E. is a game-changer for you:

  • You’re in Control: Your bonus isn't impacted by fixed costs like rent or taxes. It is based entirely on the variables you control: Labor, Food Waste, and Operating Expenses.
  • No "Corporate Ceiling": When you run a lean, efficient, and high-volume shop, you see the direct results in your paycheck.
  • Entrepreneurial Ownership: We give you the tools and the autonomy to manage your "four walls" like an owner.

What Else Is In It For You?

  • The "Car Program": A fully-funded company car program available to high-performing, tenured GMs.
  • Full Benefits: Health, Dental, Vision, and Disability insurance.
  • Future Wealth: 401(k) with a generous Company Match.
  • Support System: In-store chaplain support and a clear, supportive path for career advancement.
  • Balanced Life: Generous Paid Time Off (PTO) and free meals on every shift.

Your Impact & Responsibilities

You will be the "CEO" of the High Point Five Guys, focusing on two main pillars:

1. Interpersonal Excellence (The People)

  • Recruit, train, and inspire a "Five Guys" caliber crew.
  • Create an environment where people want to work and customers want to return.
  • Lead from the front—be the energy on the line during the rush.

2. Financial Shrewdness (The Profit)

  • Master the P&L: Execute strategies to optimize labor and minimize food cost (COGS).
  • Operational Precision: Ensure 100% compliance with safety, security, and brand standards.
  • Proactive Management: Treat every dollar spent in the restaurant like it’s your own.

Qualifications

  • 2+ years of Leadership: Experience in high-volume restaurant or hospitality management.
  • Financial Fluency: You understand P&Ls and know how to move the needle on controllable expenses.
  • Natural Coach: You have a track record of developing talent and building strong teams.
  • Hands-on Grit: You are comfortable in a fast-paced, high-heat, hands-on leadership role.
  • Flexibility: Willingness to work a schedule that meets the needs of the business (days, nights, weekends).

We are a growing, people-first franchise group. We believe in taking care of the leaders who take care of our business. Learn more about our story at lifesfood.net.
