Manager – Osborne Pizza Kitchen (OPK)
The manager is responsible for managing the daily operations at Osborne Pizza Kitchen (OPK). This is a hands-on, working Kitchen Manager role who leads from the line while also helping guide systems, people, and performance.
This role works closely with both FOH and BOH teams to deliver OPK’s signature product and guest experience. The manager is accountable for the quality, consistency, and execution of the full menu while maintaining a clean, organized, and high-performing kitchen.

Working Conditions & Expectations
This role requires weekends, holidays, early mornings, and late evenings
Shifts range from 8–12 hours
Fast-paced, high-energy environment
This position is not a fit for someone who wants to sit in an office analyzing reports
