General Manager

Run a Whataburger like it's your own. We're DH Burger (Double H Burger Company)—a family-owned Whataburger franchisee.

Our mission is simple:

BE the standard. That means following the playbook to the letter and executing it better than anyone else. We're a structured operation. Whataburger's brand standards and our internal procedures are the foundation—we don't reinvent them, we run them with discipline. What we offer is a family-owned operator who knows your name, supports you when it counts, and rewards GMs who execute consistently. What you'll earn $52K-$60K base salary depending on experience Monthly bonus tied to your store's sales —the better your store performs, the bigger the check Medical, dental, and vision insurance 401(k) to build for the long haul Free meals anytime—for you and your immediate family Paid Learn2Serve certification —we cover it, you keep it 8-10 weeks of paid training before you're handed the keys What you'll actually do You'll run the building. Tuesday through Saturday, 7 AM to 5 PM is the typical rhythm—though like any restaurant, real life shifts that around when business or staffing demands it. Most of our GMs put in around 50 hours a week. We're upfront about that because we'd rather you know now than find out later.

A normal week looks like:

Working alongside your team, not from behind a desk. We hire GMs who lead from the line, the grill, and the dining room—not the office. Running a spotless, food-safe building. NSF standards are non-negotiable here. Cleanliness and food safety are our top priority, every shift, every day. Coaching your shift leads and crew so they're ready for their next promotion (we promote from within—a lot) Hitting food cost, labor, SOS, and sales targets that drive your bonus Approving orders, running deposits, building schedules, and keeping the line tight Walking the dining room during rushes, doing table touches, and being present —our company promise to every guest who walks in What we need from you Restaurant management experience (multi-unit or high-volume QSR is a plus, but not required) Comfortable owning a P&L, not just clocking in Steady under pressure—you keep the team calm during a rush A real Guest-First mindset: you'd rather be on the floor than hiding in the office Valid driver's license and a clean MVR (we run one) Willing to pass a background check (we run one) Why DH Burger and not the other guys Family-owned, not corporate. Our ownership team is hands-on and accessible—you'll know the people who sign your check, and they'll know you. We're growing. New stores mean new leadership openings—Multi-Unit GM, Multi-Unit Supervisor, Training GM. Your next role is already on our org chart. We pay for your growth. Learn2Serve, ongoing training, real coaching from people who've actually run the line. Whataburger brand strength. You're not building traffic from scratch. You're protecting and growing a brand customers already drive across town for. Ready to BE the standard? Hit Apply. We review every application and will reach out directly if you're a fit.
