Gastonia, NC

Fuel Your Future with Flavor. Lead with Purpose.

Are you a people-powered, flavor-forward, taco-loving legend? Then we’ve got a leadership opportunity that’s as bold as our burritos. QDOBA Mexican Eats is on the hunt for a General Manager who’s ready to bring the heat, leading with passion, purpose, and plenty of queso.

When you join QDOBA, you’re not just stepping into a restaurant - you’re stepping into the Thrive Restaurant Group family. That means heart, soul, integrity, and a seriously awesome people-first culture that believes you can thrive at work and in life.

What You'll Be Dishing Out:

As the fearless flavor captain of your restaurant, you’ll:

  • Lead by example - energize your team and deliver unforgettable guest experiences

  • Hire, train & develop a dream team that brings the QDOBA magic every shift

  • Own the numbers - manage budgets, inventory, scheduling, and all the fun operations stuff

  • Foster a culture of growth, accountability, and positivity

  • Build community connections that turn guests into regulars

  • Ensure safety, cleanliness, and excellence from open to close

️ Ingredients for a Rock Star GM:

  • 2+ years in restaurant management (fast casual or full service preferred)

  • A track record of building strong teams & mentoring future leaders

  • Budget-savvy, people-smart, and solutions-focused

  • You communicate like a pro and hustle with heart

  • Nights, weekends, holidays? No problem—you’re all in.

Why You'll Love Rolling with Us:

Sure, we wrap burritos—but we also wrap you up in support, opportunity, and a whole lot of team spirit.

  • Competitive salary + bonus potential

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance

  • Paid time off + holidays

  • 401(k) with company match

  • Free QDOBA meals while you work (yes, really!)

  • Career growth with a growing brand backed by Thrive

  • A workplace where you’re seen, heard, and valued
