• Provide leadership, coaching, and accountability to Store Managers and their teams
• Recruit, interview, hire, and help develop strong employees and managers

• Ensure company policies and operating procedures are consistently followed
• Oversee customer service, merchandising, cleanliness, food-service operations, and overall store standards
• Assist Store Managers with employee relations, performance management, and difficult personnel situations
• Ensure required reports, inventory counts, and operational paperwork are completed accurately and timely
• Assist with vendor, maintenance, and equipment issues when necessary
• Identify opportunities to increase sales and improve the customer experience
• Follow through on identified issues to ensure problems are resolved rather than simply reported
