Dash In is hiring a Bench Store Manager to support and learn our Delaware market while preparing to take over a store of your own. This role is ideal for experienced restaurant managers, kitchen managers, or multi‑unit leaders who want broader operational exposure, real P&L responsibility, and a clear path to becoming a Store General Manager
.

You’ll train alongside seasoned leaders, step in to run stores when needed, and build the skills required to manage a Dash In location independently once placed.

This is not a desk job. It’s hands‑on, fast‑paced, and built for leaders who know how to run a floor, coach a team, and protect the business.

• Run high‑volume operations – food service, retail, and labor in a busy, guest‑focused environment
• Manage the numbers – own store‑level P&L results including sales, margins, labor, and controllable expenses
• Execute brand standards – food safety, age verification, cash handling, audits, and guest experience scores
• Support multiple locations – travel between Delaware‑area stores as business needs require
• Train for your next step – gain the experience needed to become a Store General Manager when a location opens

• 3–5+ years of leadership experience in restaurants, food service, retail, or hospitality
• Proven ability to lead teams in a fast‑paced, high‑volume environment
• Experience with scheduling, inventory, ordering, and labor control
• Comfort owning results and making decisions on the floor
• P&L exposure strongly preferred
• High school diploma or GED required (college coursework a plus)
• Serv Safe certification (or ability to obtain)
• Working knowledge of Microsoft Office (Outlook, Excel, Word)
• Willingness to travel between sites and work a flexible schedule including nights, weekends, and holidays

• Flexible schedule based on business needs (this is a 24/7 operation)
• Travel between Delaware locations required
• Initial training may occur outside your home location (accommodations provided if needed)
• Acts as the store leader during General Manager absences once trained

• Clear path to becoming a Store General Manager
• Exposure to multiple locations
• Strong fit for restaurant leaders ready to expand beyond the kitchen or dining room
• Real responsibility, real authority, real expectations
