Lead the Team. Own the Experience. Grow the Business.

Drive & Shine is seeking a high-energy, people-first leader to manage one of our retail locations. As a Store Manager (also called “Captain”), you’ll lead the entire site — from customer service and sales to staffing, scheduling, and operational excellence. This is a hands-on role designed for a service-minded professional who thrives in a fast-paced, team-driven environment.

We’re not just looking for a manager. We’re looking for someone who sees potential in others, builds winning teams, and takes pride in delivering unforgettable customer experience.

· Handle customer concerns and feedback with professionalism

· Communicate clearly with executive leadership (COO/CEO) on progress and priorities

· Foster a culture where every team member feels valued and motivated to grow

We’ve seen strong success from district-level leaders in:

· Car Washes or Automotive Services
