General Manager

The General Manager (GM) is responsible for running a profitable restaurant and for making sure the restaurant meets the company’s critical customer standards of Quality, Service, and Cleanliness (QSC) via all 9 McDonalds Systems. The general manager reports to the area supervisor and leads a team of managers. The GM works with their team of managers to set the restaurant's goals and creates a plan to achieve those goals.

As a GM you are responsible for completing a whole job – running a successful McDonald’s franchise restaurant at all times. How you accomplish that job is solely at your discretion. When your restaurant falls short of expectations and goals, you fall short of performing well. You are expected to work whatever hours necessary to accomplish the goals, objectives, and targets. As a guiding principle, you are expected at a minimum to work five shifts per week, at 9 hours a day. You are expected to work different dayparts if the business requires it.
