Founding Managing Partner – Scottsdale Launch - Smiling Moose Rocky Mountain Deli -Scottsdale, AZ

Most restaurant jobs want you to maintain somebody else’s vision.

We’re looking for someone who wants to help build one.

Smiling Moose is launching in Scottsdale, and we’re searching for a hungry, creative, culture-driving operator to become the founding GM/Managing Partner of our Arizona flagship location.

This role is for someone who:

• Thinks like an owner
• Loves hospitality and food culture
• Wants creative input
• Gets fired up about building a team
• Wants more than just “running shifts”
• Has long-term dreams of multi-unit leadership or franchise ownership

What Makes This Different

This isn’t corporate copy-and-paste restaurant management.

This is an opportunity to:

• Help shape a growing brand in Arizona
• Influence culture, systems, and guest experience
• Build community around the restaurant
• Create energy, not just schedules
• Potentially grow into multi-unit leadership or franchise ownership

We want someone who sees restaurants as:

• culture
• creativity
• hospitality
• community
• business
• leadership

—not just operations.
