About the role

You will coach General Managers, implement Potbelly Playbooks, and ensure staffing, scheduling, and performance reviews across markets. You will travel 80-90% in the field, work 50+ hours weekly, and partner with Support Center to optimize labor costs, food costs, and safety compliance while upholding Potbelly standards.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
