- Jersey Mike's Franchise Group (5 stores)
Bayview Holdings owns and operates five Jersey Mike's Subs locations in the Milwaukee and Waukesha corridor, inside one of the fastest-growing brands in the country. We are hiring an experienced General Manager for our Pewaukee store - one leader, ready to take full command of a high-volume location.
We are a family-owned group, not a corporate ladder. The owners answer their own phones, know every store, and make decisions in days. If you have spent your career reporting into a regional structure and want to work where your results are seen by the people who own the business, that is what this is.
What you'll own- Lead the team. Hire and keep dependable people. Build a real leadership team - an AGM and two or three certified full-time shift leads. Coach and correct fast and fairly. Develop at least one leader who can run the store without you.
- Serve the customer. Friendly, accurate, fast - every order. Clean dining room, restrooms, line, and exterior at all times. Review guest feedback daily and coach from it.
- Run the store. Opening and closing standards. Food safety without exception. Inventory, ordering, cash controls, equipment care. Audit-ready every day - not just when an inspection is expected.
- Own the numbers. Sales and transaction trends. Labor targets. Food cost, waste, and discounts. Read your P&L and explain what caused it - and what you'll do next.
- Protect your leadership time. We schedule it. About 15 hours a week of oversight work, on the calendar like any other shift, with the rest of your week on the line.
The benchmark we set:
does your store run at a high level when you are not in it?
- 3+ years as a General Manager of a high-volume restaurant. Multi-unit, area-trainer, or area-manager experience is a strong plus and changes the conversation about where this role can lead.
- You have owned a P&L and can tell us your store's sales volume, food cost, and labor percentage from memory.
- You have been through third-party audits - health department, brand audit, or a program like Steritech - and can describe a finding you got and what you changed because of it.
- You have developed someone who got promoted.
- Food-safety discipline. Serv Safe certified (Proctor-level certification is a real asset here.)
- Willing to complete Jersey Mike's certification, including brand training out of state.
- Full-time, five days a week, including weekend days, openings, and closings - that's when the business runs hardest.
Above the store level we have three leadership seats: a VP of Operations and Growth, and two General Manager-Director roles. A GM-D runs their own store and carries a defined set of duties across all five - one owns the operating standard and the system that verifies it; the other is the field director, working store to store on coaching, audit preparation, and new-store support as we grow.
One of those two director seats is filled. The other is open, and it is earned, not given. The path is the honest one: run Pewaukee to our standard, earn your Jersey Mike's certifications, prove it over four to six months, and you can compete for it. Full achievement in a director seat pays in the high $80s.
We put this in writing rather than hinting at it, because a growth story you can't verify isn't worth much.
What we offer- $70,000 - $79,500 total cash - base salary plus a monthly performance bonus tied to store results. Base is [$62,500-$67,500] depending on experience and certification status; the bonus is where the rest is earned, and it moves with store contribution. Every step…
