Manager - Full-time

We believe people are our greatest asset – only the BEST make our team.  We treat people with respect, and believe in achieving results.  This belief in people extends outside our company, to everyone with whom we do business.  We treat customers as guests in our home, and we recognize suppliers as partners in our efforts.

We believe that a positive mental attitude (PMA) is one of the most important assets that a person can possess.  A person’s attitude, not aptitude, is the chief determinant of success.

We take pride in what we do and believe that anything worth doing is worth doing with excellence.  We plan continually for success.  Only by having passion for what we do, will we generate the intensity in our quest for perfection.

Our philosophy toward people and desire for results creates the EJG Enterprises, Inc. d/b/a Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken atmosphere.  Our entire company revolves around people.  From the restaurant team members to the Company Officers, everyone plays an important part in achieving our goals.  There are no unimportant people in our organization.

Our sense of urgency is getting to the goal line with results.  We are a hard-charging, lean management team which accepts only a “We Will Do It” philosophy.

In joining EJG Enterprises, Inc. d/b/a Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken, you are surrounded by bright, intelligent, over-achievers who are competitive and eager to take on new challenges. You are an integral part of a FIRST RATE team.

Our growth objectives are stretching and challenging.  We need people who can grow and adapt to meet our goals.

We are seeking people who provide leadership by engendering excitement, enthusiasm, a positive mental attitude and a commitment toward company objectives.  We want managers that create an atmosphere of teamwork.

If you have at least 2 years of restaurant management experience with a proven track record of achieving results and building a winning team along with a general knowledge of operational procedures and shift positions, we want to hear from you.
