Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The manager is responsible for supervising both kitchen operations and the overall dining experience to ensure high standards and customer satisfaction. Key duties include coaching team members, managing daily revenues, and maintaining food safety compliance.
Candidates must possess a passion for serving others and the ability to lead and develop a team in a fast-paced environment. A food safety certification is required to identify and coach safe food handling practices.
Our YOU FIRST Philosophy
In addition to no night shifts and our fully chef-curated menu, our #1 priority has always been our people. We care about our customers, and we care about you! That’s where our YOU FIRST culture begins – each day, we put our employees first and strive to make them happy. They are empowered with an independence to make decisions that will help provide an exceptional breakfast, brunch, or lunch experience for their customers. In fact, we like to say, we love our employees more than bacon. And that says a lot.
A Few of The Perks (and not just the coffee!)
All employees are eligible for the following:
*Employees must enroll within 30 days for hire and the benefit begins the 1st of the month following 60 days of employment
About the Position
First Watch Managers love mornings and the smell of bacon, and most importantly, they have an innate passion for serving others. We’re not just talking great customer service or amazing food (although customers and food are also high on our list). We hire managers that coach and develop team members who, in turn, fall in love with serving others – and thus the beautiful cycle of restaurant life continues.
We have immense pride in our food which is why we don’t subscribe to the old BOH versus FOH management structure. At First Watch, each manager is responsible for supervising both kitchen operations and the overall dining experience.
Key Responsibilities
First Watch is the leading Daytime Dining concept serving made-to-order breakfast, brunch and lunch using the freshest ingredients available. Guided by its “Follow the Sun” culinary philosophy, First Watch’s chef-driven menu rotates multiple times per year to feature the highest-quality flavors at their peak, offering elevated executions of classic favorites, fresh juices like the Kale Tonic, and fan favorites such as the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, Quinoa Power Bowl and signature Million Dollar Bacon. For every kid’s meal served, First Watch proudly donates a portion to organizations and causes making a positive impact to our communities – raising approximately $2.0 million to date. A recipient of many “Best Breakfast” and “Best Brunch” awards, First Watch was voted #1 Best Breakfast by Newsweek’s Readers’ Choice Awards 2025, and also named 2025 and 2024’s #1 Most Loved Workplace in America by the Best Practice Institute – an accolade most recently featured in The Wall Street Journal – after appearing on the list in 2022 and 2023, as well. With a commitment to quality, hospitality and community, First Watch is redefining Daytime Dining across more than 630 First Watch restaurants in 32 states.

Making Days Brighter with a fresh approach to breakfast, brunch and lunch
At First Watch, you’re the reason we wake up at the crack of dawn, ready to make your day that much brighter. We greet the sunrise by slicing and juicing the freshest fruits and vegetables, whipping up our French toast batter from scratch and brewing pots of our award-winning, single-origin Project Sunrise coffee. Freshness is never comprised, which is why we welcome each season into our menu with ingredients and flavors inspired by the position of the sun. This authenticity is what guides not only our sourcing and menu, but also our relationships with the communities we serve. From holding the door to just being kind, we’re committed to serving you with care, openness and intention. It’s all part of our "YOU FIRST®" mission — putting people first and doing whatever it takes to make your visit memorable. Whether you start at the crack of dawn or not, well, we’ll leave that up to you! Want to greet the sunrise with us as part of our team? We’re serious brunch people, so when we say we love our people more than bacon, you know we mean it. We put our employees first, so they, in turn, put our customers first – because our award-winning culture is always on the menu. We’re opening restaurants all over the country, which means as we grow, so do you, with even more opportunities for advancement. The best part? No Nights Ever. Our team works side-by-side during one shift only, so you can leave when the sun’s still up, every day. Start your career with us at careers.firstwatch.com.
