General Manager
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for a General Manager who leads with heart, runs a tight ship, and actually enjoys the chaos of a busy Friday night. You're the kind of leader who knows every team member's name, can read a P&L like a menu, and gets fired up about making guests' days a little better one roll at a time. You set the tone, set the standard, and set your team up to win.
If you love hospitality, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and want to grow with a brand that's still growing — then keep reading.
What You'll Do
- Run the whole show — Front of House, Back of House, and everything in between.
- Hire great people, train them well, and build a team that actually wants to show up.
- Coach, develop, and promote from within — we love seeing our people grow.
- Own the numbers: labor, food cost, inventory, sales, and profitability. (Spreadsheets aren't scary — they're your friend.)
- Drive sales and grow guest counts through strong floor presence, local marketing, and being a real part of your community.
- Handle performance management, coaching, recognition, and the occasional tough conversation — with fairness and respect.
- Keep things compliant: food safety, sanitation, alcohol service, and labor laws are non-negotiable.
- Turn guest complaints into guest loyalty (and the occasional five-star review).
- Execute brand standards and rollouts so every guest gets the Trapper's experience they came for.
- Partner with regional leadership on goals, audits, and big-picture initiatives.
- Keep the restaurant clean, safe, well-stocked, and running like the well-oiled sushi machine it is.
- Lead with integrity, energy, and a sense of humor — because long shifts go better when people actually like coming to work.
What's In It For You
- Compensation: $81,000 – $84,000 per year, plus performance-based bonus (we win, you win)
- Medical insurance: 80% employer paid after 60 days (with qualifying hours)
- 401(k) with company match (after 1 year of service)
- Voluntary dental and vision coverage
- Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
- Paid sick leave (per WA state/local laws)
- Employee meal discounts — yes, the sushi is included
- Real opportunities to grow with a multi-state restaurant group that's still expanding
- A team-first culture where leadership actually has your back
