Job description

Are you bready to grow your career with a company that values and supports you? Lettuce tell you about this roll!

We’re MWB Restaurants: your local Whataburger franchise. We’re searching for leaders who know what it takes to run a great restaurant, and aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves and make it happen. If that’s you, keep reading! 

As an Operating Partner, you’ll run a multi-million dollar restaurant for one of America’s favorite burger brands! You’ll oversee every aspect of your unit’s operations: from budgeting and driving sales to managing staff, keeping costs in check, managing P&L, and growing future leaders.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

  • Take charge of a multi-million dollar business, owning sales, budgeting, P&L, and more
  • Build, lead, and motivate a team of 50-70+ burger experts
  • Set the standard for professionalism, coaching your team, sharing ideas, and celebrating wins
  • Ensure every guest leaves full, happy, and thinking “what-a-burger”!
  • Drive engagement, sales, and profitability through smart, creative marketing
  • Fostering a culture of friendly competition, productivity, and fun
  • Leave a lasting positive impact on our guests, your team, and your community

REWARDS YOU’LL ENJOY:

  • $60000.00 - $70000.00 per year base salary (paid weekly!)
  • Up to $56,000 in annual bonus potential (paid monthly!)
  • 3 weeks of PTO after 90 days
  • Medical, vision, and dental insurance
  • 401(k) with a 50% match up to 6%
  • 100% company-paid life insurance
  • Access same-day pay and low-interest loans with FinFit (if eligible)
  • Whataburger Family Foundation (hardship assistance)
  • Whataburger Scholarship Program
  • Paid relocation assistance

THIS JOB IS FOR YOU IF:

  • You’ve been a General Manager or higher for well-known brands like McDonald’s, Taco Bell, Culver's, or similar
  • You’re an expert in restaurant operations — budgets, food safety, P&L, the works
  • You balance the admin without losing connection with the floor (this role is 70% admin, 30% floor management)
  • You’re a hands-on leader who engages, motivates, and connects with your team
  • You lead with a focus on long-term growth, building a team that’s equipped and excited to succeed every day

WHERE YOU CAN GO (CAREER PATH):

General Manager  >  Operating Partner  >  Sr Operating Partner  >  Market Leader

Whata you waiting for? Apply now! (Burger puns encouraged, but not required)

At MWB, we're not your typical fast food place. Our team of burger experts serve fresh, made-to-order breakfast, lunch, and dinner — 24/7. Not only are our burgers tasty, they're so big you'll need both hands to hold them!
