Front Of House Manager Jobs in Two Rivers, WI (NOW HIRING)

Front of House Hourly Supervisor

Parker John’s BBQ & Pizza is looking for a high-energy, hospitality-driven leader to join our team as a Front of House Hourly Supervisor.

This is not your average restaurant supervisor position.

Our Hourly Supervisors have a unique and vital role within Parker John’s. They work alongside the team in hourly positions such as serving, bartending, and catering while also stepping into the role of Manager on Duty during scheduled supervisor shifts.

The right person for this position leads by example, takes ownership of the restaurant around them, and understands that leadership starts with consistently doing things the right way.

We also want our Front of House Hourly Supervisors to be financially successful in the role. As part of that commitment, supervisors receive priority scheduling for Full-Service and Drop-Off Catering opportunities. These events include automatic gratuity, giving supervisors additional opportunities to significantly increase their overall earnings while taking on greater responsibility within the restaurant.

Who We Are

Parker John’s BBQ & Pizza isn’t your average restaurant. We’re a locally owned, high-energy brand built on authentic hickory-smoked BBQ, scratch-made food, and genuine hospitality.

Our goal is simple: provide an experience that exceeds our guests' expectations.

We don’t just serve food. We create moments, build relationships, and turn first-time guests into lifelong regulars.

A Preview Into Parker John’s

At Parker John’s, there’s always something happening.

From our All-You-Can-Eat Nights featuring wings, ribs, and our famous Friday fish fry, to our All-Day Happy Hour Sunday through Thursday, we give guests a reason to come back again and again.

Our menu is built around made-from-scratch food and authentic hickory-smoked meats, creating bold flavors and a product our team can truly stand behind.

As an Hourly Supervisor, you’ll help make sure the Parker John’s experience is delivered consistently, no matter how busy the restaurant gets.

What Makes This Role Different

Hourly Supervisors at Parker John’s have two important responsibilities:

Be an Example Setter.

When working as a server, bartender, or catering lead, our supervisors are expected to be some of the strongest performers in the building.

Every standard and every Step of Service should be executed with excellence. Shortcuts cannot become part of the routine, and playing by the Parker John’s playbook is always expected.

When scheduled as the acting Floor Manager, the role changes.

During these shifts, the Hourly Supervisor assumes the responsibilities of the Manager on Duty, and the success of the shift becomes their responsibility.

That means leading the team, managing the guest experience, maintaining restaurant standards, solving problems, coaching team members, and keeping the operation moving.

Why Parker John’s?

We aren't looking for someone who simply wants a supervisor title. We're looking for someone who wants to become a leader.

Someone who takes pride in their restaurant, cares about their team, understands the importance of the guest experience, and isn't afraid to take ownership when something needs attention.

For the right person, the Hourly Supervisor position can also be the beginning of a much larger career with Parker John’s.

As our company continues to grow, we want our future Assistant General Managers and General Managers to come from leaders who have already demonstrated that they can take care of their guests, support their team, and successfully lead a restaurant.

If you're ready to lead from the front, set the example, and help create an outstanding experience for every guest who walks through our doors, we'd love to meet you.
