About Olive & Finch Collective
Olive & Finch Collective is a Denver-based hospitality group committed to fresh,
chef-driven meals, exceptional guest experiences, and a people-first culture. Since
opening in 2013, our growing portfolio now includes restaurants, neighborhood cafés, a
full-service bakeshop, a robust catering and events division, retail and grab-and-go
operations, and multiple locations at Denver International Airport. At Olive & Finch, we

Position Summary
The Manager supports the General Manager / Senior General Manager in overseeing
daily airport kiosk operations. This exempt, non-tip-eligible role is responsible for the
floor leadership, coaching, and staffing of the kiosk barista team.
Because the location runs as a walk-up kiosk without traditional dining rooms or
standalone cashiers, the Manager focuses on driving exceptional speed of service,
ensuring precise register and cash handling, keeping grab-and-go displays fully
merchandised, and maintaining high standards of food safety, sanitation, and airport
compliance. The Manager also assists with daily labor controls, kiosk supply ordering,
and operational consistency to deliver the Little Finch mission within a unique, compact
airport environment.
