• Serve as the primary remote point of contact for frontline staff, resolving issues and providing ongoing coaching and support.
• Partner with supply chain and inventory teams to forecast labor and prep needs based on demand planning.
• Ensure all locations comply with local health regulations and company quality benchmarks through remote audits and checklists.

• Proficiency with digital management tools, scheduling software, and virtual communication platforms (e.g., Zoom, Teams, Slack).
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to lead and motivate a dispersed workforce.
• Proven ability to analyze data, create reports, and make data-driven decisions to improve efficiency.
• High school diploma or equivalent; a degree in Hospitality Management or related field is a plus.
