“`html

Are you a hospitality expert who thrives on efficiency and leadership but is ready to ditch the 80-hour floor week? Join GourmetStream as a Remote Restaurant Operations Manager, where you will oversee multi-unit performance and digital scaling from the comfort of your home office.

About the Role

The modern dining landscape is shifting, and GourmetStream is at the forefront of this evolution. We are seeking a high-energy, detail-oriented Remote Restaurant Manager to act as the strategic bridge between our corporate vision and our physical kitchen hubs. Unlike a traditional floor manager role, this is a high-level operational position focused on performance metrics, vendor management, and remote team leadership.

In this role, you won’t be flipping burgers or seating guests; instead, you will be analyzing real-time data, optimizing supply chains, and managing a distributed team of on-site supervisors to ensure every meal meets our gold standard. You will be the primary architect of operational excellence, ensuring that our remote-first management style translates into five-star customer experiences.

Salary Range

$65,000 – $85,000 USD per year (Depending on experience, plus performance-based bonuses and comprehensive benefits).

Key Responsibilities

Operational Oversight

• Monitor real-time KPIs across multiple virtual kitchen locations to ensure peak efficiency.
• Implement and refine Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to maintain brand consistency.
• Coordinate with third-party delivery partners to optimize logistics and reduce delivery times.

Team Leadership & Training

• Conduct weekly remote syncs with on-site leads to troubleshoot operational bottlenecks.
• Develop digital training modules for onboarding new staff across various regions.
• Manage scheduling and labor cost analysis to maximize profitability without sacrificing quality.

Financial Management

• Analyze P&L statements and implement cost-saving measures in food waste and labor.
• Oversee remote inventory procurement and manage relationships with national suppliers.
• Drive revenue growth through the optimization of digital menus and promotional pricing.

Requirements

• Experience: Minimum of 3-5 years in restaurant management or hospitality operations.
• Tech Savvy: Proficiency with POS systems (Toast, Square), project management tools (Asana, Trello), and advanced Excel/Google Sheets.
• Leadership: Proven track record of managing teams remotely or overseeing multiple locations.
• Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills for coordinating between corporate and kitchen staff.
• Education: A degree in Hospitality Management, Business Administration, or equivalent professional experience.

Why Join GourmetStream?

The Benefits of Remote Hospitality

We believe that the best leaders are those who have a healthy work-life balance. By moving the management layer to a remote environment, we eliminate the burnout associated with traditional restaurant roles while keeping the excitement of the industry.

• 100% Remote Work: Work from anywhere in the USA.

Who You Are

You are a “hospitality heart” with a “corporate mind.” You love the fast-paced nature of the food industry, but you have a passion for systems, data, and scalability. You are a problem-solver who can spot a dip in performance from a dashboard and implement a solution before the dinner rush begins. If you are ready to redefine what it means to be a Restaurant Manager, we want to hear from you.
