General Manager

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Playa Bowls is New Jersey's Original Acai Shop, founded in 2014, and our mission is to bring superfruit bowls to the masses using only the freshest, highest quality ingredients while providing a fantastic in-store brand experience. What began as a pair of blenders, a patio table, and a fridge has flourished into a 300+ unit operator and franchisor of the leading fast casual restaurant concept. Playa Bowls added more than 70+ locations in 2024 and are on target to add as many 90 new locations in 2025. Our continued rapid growth has created the opportunity for an individual who will help us with continuing to grow our brand!

As the General Manager of a Playa Bowls location, you are responsible for overseeing all aspects of store operations, ensuring exceptional guest experience, and leading your team to success. You’ll manage and mentor a full team of Assistant Managers, Shift Leaders, and Team Members — fostering a supportive, high-energy work environment.
