The right person will begin at a rate based on experience and performance during a paid evaluation period. Someone who proves they can truly organize, improve and operate the business can quickly advance toward the top of the pay range and qualify for monthly profit sharing. This is a hands-on position This is not an office-management job. You will not be sitting around watching employees or only giving instructions. You must be ready to put on an apron, get down and dirty and work beside the pizza man every day. At the beginning, the restaurant will operate with two main workers: • One experienced pizza man, • One hands-on kitchen manager and operator The business cannot currently support separate cashiers, cleaners, dishwashers, prep cooks or assistant managers. Until the restaurant grows, the person hired must personally help cook, prep, clean, wash dishes, handle customers, answer phones, pack orders and manage the daily operation. As sales and profitability improve, additional staff can be added where financially justified.

Good-faith mistakes must be reported and corrected immediately. Theft, concealed sales, intentional falsification or deliberate manipulation of records will end the employment and profit-sharing arrangement.

We want someone capable of helping operate and grow this restaurant for many years. Compensation and growth Starting pay: $18–$25 per hour based on demonstrated experience and performance. • Paid working evaluation, • Applicable overtime paid, • Fast advancement available for exceptional performance, • Profit sharing is additional compensation and does not replace regular wages, • No financial investment is required from the candidate, • The owner provides the business, equipment, inventory, approved repairs and operating capital The first 60 days will be a paid evaluation and system-building period.
