CULVER'S

General Manager

Franchisee/Mentee Development Fast-Track

We're not just filling a management role. We're identifying the next generation of Culver's owner/operators leaders who will one day put their name on a restaurant and never look back. If you've built a team, driven KPI and P&L metrics, and carry the conviction that a great restaurant doesn't happen by accident, this is where your journey to Culver's ownership begins.

Built for operators, not administrators.

You'll step in as General Manager of a Culver's restaurant fully accountable for the guest experience, the financial performance, and the development of every person on your team. From day one you'll be treated like an operator: real P&L exposure, a seat at the district leadership table, and a credible, structured pathway toward restaurant ownership. Our group is built for people who want to grow. The GMs around you are building their own paths. The DM you'll work alongside is invested in your trajectory. And the Culver's brand ButterBurgers, Fresh Frozen Custard, and genuine hospitality that has kept guests coming back for decades gives you one of the most trusted guest experiences in QSR to operate with.

Three domains. Full accountability.

Your People

Recruit, hire, develop, and retain a high-performing team. Build your bench. Create shift leaders and assistant managers who go on to lead their own restaurants. Conduct regular one-on-ones, performance reviews, and coaching conversations that move people forward not just address problems.

Your P&L

Own every line of your restaurant's financial performance labor, food cost, and overall profitability. You'll have full visibility into your numbers and be expected to have a point of view on all of them. Run it like your name is on the deed.

Your Guests

Set and enforce the standard for hospitality, speed, and accuracy every single shift. Lead a team that delivers a consistently exceptional experience fast, friendly, and accurate. Every guest who walks in should leave wondering why every restaurant can't be this good.

Beyond the three core domains: bi-monthly manager meetings, performance reviews, inventory and product rotation, precision scheduling against sales forecasts, and serve as the operational expert your team comes to first not last.

Rare. But we know it when we see it.

We've hired talented managers before. What we're looking for is something rarer a leader with an ownership mindset who doesn't need reminding that the buck stops with them.

You talk about past restaurants using "I built," "I fixed," "I decided." You own the outcomes good and bad.

You're in the numbers. Labor %, food cost variance, drive-thru window time you have a point of view on all three.

You develop people deliberately. Someone on your team right now is better because of what you did, not what happened to them.

You close the loop. When something is broken, you find it, fix it, and make sure it stays fixed. You don't wait to be told twice.

You've absorbed hard feedback and used it. You can name the last time a tough conversation made you better.

You have a "why." The idea of owning something being fully accountable, fully rewarded isn't abstract to you. It's the direction you're already moving.

We manage by scorecard, not by gut.

Here's what's on yours and what separates a good GM from someone on an ownership track.

Labor %: Standard < 22% | Above Standard < 21% | Efficiency by design

Food Cost Variance: Standard < 1% | Above Standard < 0.5% | Zero waste mindset

Drive-Thru Speed (5-min): Standard < 35% | Above Standard < 20% | Guest-first urgency

SMG Guest Score: Standard > 80% | Above Standard > 84% | Raving fans, every visit

Above Standard isn't the ceiling it's the baseline for the development track. Candidates who consistently operate in the Significantly Above Standard range are the first to enter franchisee conversations.
