  • Execute all operations policies, procedures, and programs within the store (and ensure they are followed by others to keep Sonny's a great place to work!)
  • Report information to the General Manager through plans of action, goals, etc. (they are always thinking about ways to make Sonny's the premier BBQ brand!)
