Field Director of Operations – New York City 

Our agency is partnering with a global quick service brand undergoing an exciting rebrand and repositioning - moving toward a more elevated, tech-forward guest experience across its corporate locations in New York City.

We’re looking for a Field Director of Operations to oversee 9 locations (growing to 13 by year-end).

This is a highly visible, hands-on role for someone who thrives in-store, with teams, and in the day-to-day operation.

• Overseeing operations across corporate-owned QSR locations in NYC
• Spending significant time in-store supporting teams and driving execution
• Leading, coaching, and developing General Managers and leadership teams
• Driving consistency in service, standards, and guest experience
• Supporting the rollout of new brand standards, systems, and technology initiatives
• Managing financial performance including sales, labor, cost control, and profitability
• Identifying operational gaps and implementing practical, scalable improvements

What We’re Looking For

• Multi-unit leadership experience in quick service or fast casual environments
• Exposure to Franchisee’s
• Strong financial acumen with hands-on P&L ownership
• A high-energy, floor-focused leader who leads by example
• Experience working in high-volume, fast-paced operations
• Comfortable in evolving environments - especially during brand transformation or growth phases

This position is open to emerging talent ready to step into a bigger role.

Due to this, salary range is $120,000 to $170,000 depending on experience!

If you’re a hands-on operator who loves being in the business, developing teams, and driving real operational change, this is a great opportunity to step into a key leadership role.
