Cafe Lead - AGM

Green Sage Cafe•Asheville, NC

3d•$21 - $22•Hybrid

About The Position

Green Sage is growing, and we’re looking for a hardworking Café Leader to join our fun, busy, fast-casual café team. This is a full-time, hands-on role for someone who wants to learn every side of the business: front of house, back of house, and full restaurant management. In this position, you will start by working as a Shift Leader in FOH and a Kitchen Leader in BOH, honing your skills on both sides of the restaurant. Once fully trained, you’ll flex across all three of our Asheville locations (Downtown, South, and Merrimon), stepping in to support and manage stores as needed—including covering for General Managers during vacations or unexpected absences. This isn’t a role where you learn one position and stay there. It’s a deliberate path toward store leadership, built for someone who wants to understand the business from the ground up.
