Assistant Store Manager

At T&J Travel Centers, we’re redefining what a travel center can be — a place where guests experience genuine hospitality, not just convenience. We combine craveable food, spotless facilities, and friendly local service that feels like home.

We’re a fast-growing, family‑run company built on strong values and servant leadership. We’re looking for front‑of‑house leaders who run lean, lead humbly, clean relentlessly, care deeply, stay hungry, and help our teams deliver a consistent guest experience every shift.

Lead shift execution so our store runs fast, clean, and friendly — every hour of every day.

You’ll be the on‑shift leader for the front of house — responsible for pace, cleanliness, guest experience, cash discipline, and coaching your team.

Your success will be measured by how well you:

• Protect a fast checkout experience by shifting labor quickly and leading with urgency
• Maintain spotless store, restrooms, and outside areas throughout the shift
• Create a friendly, welcoming guest experience and help drive positive reviews
• Run accurate cash procedures with integrity and consistency
• Keep product recovered, faced, and presentable, and complete daily expired/damages pulls
• Coach your direct reports through consistent monthly 1:1s with documented follow‑up

• Leads humbly and holds the line — sets the pace, stays calm, and follows through
• Cares deeply — treats guests and teammates with real respect, especially when it’s busy
• Cleans relentlessly — notices the small stuff and fixes it without being asked
• Runs lean — uses labor wisely, keeps lines moving, and stays ahead of the rush
• Develops people — coaches, documents 1:1s, and raises the bar month after month

• A family‑style culture built on respect, teamwork, and humility
• Clear standards, training, and opportunities to grow into GM‑level leadership
• Competitive salary, performance bonuses, and recognition for excellence
• A clean, well‑supported, and high‑energy work environment

• Humble: We serve with gratitude and respect.
• Hungry: We work hard, stay curious, and keep improving.
• Smart: We treat people well and make thoughtful decisions.
