Job description

Being an Owner Operator at Brassica is about Entrepreneurship, Leadership, Mentorship, Craftsmanship, and Relationships.
It's about building your own business and earning half of the bottom line. Owner Operators typically earn between $125k and $325k per year. We will help you get prepared to run your own extraordinary restaurant. Your team. Your guests. Your community. Your Brassica.
...it's about Entrepreneurship
From the big details to the little details, and everything in between, entrepreneurship means caring about it all... plus the ability to problem solve and the mindset to continuously learn and improve. Like successful entrepreneurs, Owner Operators are well rewarded as their business grows and thrives.
...it's about Leadership
Setting the right tone for energy, urgency, patience, and excellence is the essential role of an Owner Operator. Our organization cultivates great leaders who learn how to invest in people's lives, and bring out their best to help them grow personally and professionally. You'll be given the training, tools, and resources to hire good people and build a great team.
...it's about Mentorship
It's your restaurant, but you're not alone. Brassica's Owner Operators are there for each other, and the Operations Support Team is here to help you as well. Your success is our success. You'll have regular check-ins, individualized goal-setting, and the guidance to help you thrive. In turn, you will mentor your team and other leaders to help them be successful.
...it's about Craftsmanship
We take extra care in getting it right, because it's the right thing to do. Our delicious food is prepared from scratch using truly extraordinary ingredients. This philosophy extends to our architecture as well. You will have a restaurant that inspires with its beautiful materials, award-winning art work + design, and outstanding craftsmanship.
...it's about Relationships
Building a great business isn't enough; we want you to build a great life. With great hospitality and delicious food, your restaurant will naturally form a community for your guests and team. You'll build lasting relationships, and create life-long connections.
If you want to be a part of a world class organization, make a positive impact, and do work you can be proud of, apply to the Brassica Owner Operator Training + Development Program.
What you can expect from us:
  • Extensive Training: 20 weeks of comprehensive training to ensure you're well-prepared.
  • Professional Development: Access to various professional development opportunities, from continuing education courses to expeditions with NOLS (National Outdoor Leadership School).
  • Supportive Work Environment: Collaborative and dedicated coworkers, in a positive, professional setting.
  • Comprehensive Benefits: Enjoy a complete benefits package, including health, vision, dental, disability, life insurance, 401(k), and paid parental leave.
  • Generous Vacation: Receive four weeks of paid vacation annually.
  • Sabbatical Leave: Benefit from an additional paid sabbatical every five years.
  • Best-in-Class Compensation: Owner Operators with their own restaurant earn half the bottom line, which is typically between $125,000 and $325,000 (protected with a guaranteed minimum weekly income of $1,500). Owner Operators in Training earn between $70,000 - $90,000 per year (for 2-3 years) while learning and preparing to open a Brassica of their own.

What we expect from you:
  • Growth Mindset: Strong motivation for personal and professional growth.
  • Invest in Others: Continuously help those around you to learn, grow, and perform at their best.
  • Team Player: A collaborative, "roll up your sleeves" approach, always ready to work alongside your culinary and service team.
  • Exceptionally Positive Attitude: Enthusiasm, optimism, and lots of energy.
  • Professionalism: Excellent communication skills, confidence, and follow through.
  • Thrive in a Fast Paced Environment: Ability to maintain Brassica's high standards under all circumstances.
  • Exceptional Work Ethic: Demonstrate a proactive leadership style with a strong sense of urgency, eager to work long 9-12 hour days, with a willingness to go above and beyond when necessary to achieve your goals.
  • Openness to Travel + Relocate: Be open to travel during training and willing to relocate for the opportunity to open your own location.
  • Background: A Bachelor's Degree with a strong GPA, and/or a track record of success in your current career.
