Operations · Full-time

Greenville, NC, USA

USD 65k-65k / year

Posted on Jun 29, 2026

For nearly 80 years, our family has cooked whole hog barbecue over wood coals because we believe quality is earned, not rushed.

Sam Jones BBQ was founded in 2015 as an extension of the historic Skylight Inn BBQ. Our Winterville management team has remained together for nearly the entire ten years we've been open. We're looking for one exceptional leader to join that team.

Not everyone is the right for this role. We're looking for someone who wants to protect a tradition - not simply manage a restaurant.

What Makes This Different:

This isn't a stepping-stone position. We want someone looking for a career, someone who believes culture matters, who leads from the front, and who takes pride in building people as much as building sales.

Who You Are:

  • Experienced restaurant leader

  • Calm under pressure

  • High integrity and accountability

  • Strong coach and communicator

  • Willing to work evenings and closing shifts

  • Respects tradition while leading today's team

  • Ready to earn trust through hard work

The Position:

50 hours/week • Salaried • Health Insurance • Ancillary benefits • 401(k) match • Paid vacation • Long-term growth

Benefits:

  • Company-sponsored life insurance

  • Company pays 80% of employee major medical coverage

  • Voluntary dental, vision, life, accident, and critical illness coverage

  • Up to 3.5% company match on the 401(k) plan

  • Free meals while working

If you're looking for an easy restaurant job, this isn't it. If you're looking for meaningful work with an exceptional team, we'd like to meet you.

Sam Jones BBQ is an equal opportunity employer.
