Shift Supervisor

Overview

As a Shift Supervisor, you are building your leadership skills and style. You will lead restaurant operations during scheduled shifts and support training for all new hires, program rollouts, and standards in your restaurant. At times, you will be the most senior squad member working the shift, and you will be responsible for ensuring that the team performs all essential tasks, provides outstanding guest experiences, and contributes to smooth restaurant operations. You will support restaurant management in overall restaurant operations and serve as a leader for the squad who work alongside you. You will provide feedback, answer questions, and give guidance. As a Shift Supervisor your objective is to model, teach, and demonstrate MOD’s purpose in all interactions. You are responsible for setting the squad up for success for the shift, during training, and as things change in the restaurant. You will lead by example, focus on directing the squad, and deliver the best possible MOD experience on every shift.

In this position, you will flex to the needs of the restaurant and the squad, sometimes leading, sometimes doing, but always keeping the MOD experience in the forefront of your mind.
