Oakland, United States Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken Oakland Full time

A new opportunity from BMRS Hospitality Recruitment


General Manager for Nationally Acclaimed Gus’s Fried Chicken in Oakland

Hailing from Memphis, Tennessee – Now Extending Coast-to-Coast


Born out of a small, local tavern in Mason, TN over 60 years ago by a husband-and-wife team, Gus’s World-Famous Chicken started locally with grass roots, word-of-mouth beginnings. Eventually, they built a free-standing restaurant on their property. It was passed down to their son, Gus, and the rest is history Word spread quickly of the delicious fried chicken. Not to be confused with Nashville hot chicken; Gus’s serves southern spicy fried chicken – hand battered and made to order All their southern sides are made in-house daily; from shredding fresh cabbage for their coleslaw to cutting potatoes for their potato salad. Most of their sides tend to be on the sweeter side to pair perfectly with their chicken and recently debuted Fried Chicken Sandwich. Gus’s has been featured in GQ, Forbes, LA Times, and many more publications touting them as the best in the world


Franchised in Southern CA, Gus’s Fried Chicken opened their first Los Angeles restaurant in Mid City 2016. Since then, they have added three locations in Burbank, Santa Ana, and Oakland, all while keeping their menu straight-forward, simple, and delicious Each SoCal location is full-service and open 7 days a week from 11:30am – 8:30pm. Their Oakland location operates as more of a fast-casual concept, and is open from 11:30am – 8pm, Wednesday – Monday. This is a great opportunity to join an awesome team and a reputable concept


Gus’s is seeking a professional, hands-on General Manager to lead the team at their Oakland location. As mentioned, this location operates as more of a fast-casual, counter service model, with less volume than their Southern California locations. This role will be very involved with working shifts and jumping in where needed, whether at the cashier, with prep, or on the line. Candidates must be highly guest-focused and appreciate the value of great customer service. A fun, energetic attitude that thrives in a fast-paced, unique concept is essential. Gus’s prides themselves on a top-tier employee environment and work-life balance, evidenced by this role having three days off per week


General Manager Responsibilities:


  • Oversee all needs of the business and remain hands on with the team and staff in all processes
  • Manage costs
  • Guide and lead the team
  • Focus on food quality, food safety, and sanitation
  • Create a positive and fun working environment
  • Take ownership of the business to increase sales and profitability
  • Awareness of restaurant cleanliness, team appearance, and productivity
  • Set an example to the team by providing excellent hospitality and service at all times
  • Anticipate the needs of the restaurant and act upon them


General Manager Qualifications:


  • Minimum 2+ years of experience as a General Manager or Assistant General Manager, preferably in a similar style (casual or upscale fast-casual) restaurant concept
  • Proven track record in leading and motivating a team
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Strong interpersonal skills
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Effective problem-solving skills
  • Ability to thrive in a high-pressure environment
  • Exceptional standards for cleanliness, health, and safety
  • Experience in managing P&L
  • Flexible schedule including mornings, nights, weekends, and on holidays
  • Food Safety Certification
  • Be able to stand/walk for long periods of time
  • Experience in restaurant opening a plus
  • Process driven and able to implement operating procedures that will continue to maximize efficiency


Compensation Package Includes:


  • Base salary in the $75-85k range DOE
  • Bonus Potential
  • Medical insurance
  • PTO Plan
  • Work-Life Balance and THREE days off per week


Please do not reach out to Gus’s Fried Chicken directly. Qualified applicants will be contacted.
