General Manager – New Coffee Shop Opening

Skyway Coffee
Chicago, Illinois
Full-time | 40 hours per week

Starting at $20.00/hour, with annual performance and compensation reviews during the first three years of employment and opportunities for growth as Skyway Coffee expands.

About Skyway Coffee

Skyway Coffee is a new community-focused coffee shop opening in Chicago. Our goal is to provide high-quality beverages in a safe, welcoming gathering space centered around excellent service, community connection, and a family-friendly atmosphere.

We are looking for an experienced, dependable General Manager who wants more than a traditional management position. Because this is a new coffee shop, the General Manager will have the opportunity to help shape the menu, build the team, establish operating standards, create the workplace culture, and participate in decisions leading up to opening day.

The right person will be able to share ideas, see those ideas put into action, and have a meaningful voice in how the shop operates.

Position Overview

The General Manager will work closely with the owner to prepare Skyway Coffee for opening and oversee day-to-day operations after launch. This is a hands-on position that combines leadership, barista work, employee management, customer service, administrative responsibilities, and community involvement.

The General Manager must be comfortable working alongside employees, preparing beverages, helping customers, solving problems, and stepping into any area of the shop when needed.

This is a full-time position scheduled for approximately 40 hours per week. Initial shop hours are expected to be Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Weekend availability may be required in the future as business hours expand. Schedules and responsibilities may adjust based on the needs of the business.

Responsibilities

The General Manager will be responsible for:

Supporting pre-opening planning and opening-day preparation
Helping establish the shop’s menu, procedures, service standards, and workplace culture
Opening and closing the coffee shop
Overseeing daily operations and ensuring the shop runs safely and efficiently
Preparing coffee, espresso drinks, tea, and other menu items
Maintaining consistent beverage quality and presentation
Providing friendly, professional customer service
Hiring employees with the support of the owner
Training, coaching, and developing baristas and customer-service staff
Creating employee schedules and coordinating shift coverage
Conducting employee performance reviews
Reviewing employee time records and assisting with payroll administration
Monitoring attendance, performance, and workplace conduct
Managing cash handling, deposits, register procedures, and daily sales reconciliation
Monitoring inventory and placing supply orders
Receiving deliveries and maintaining organized storage areas
Maintaining food safety, sanitation, cleanliness, and equipment-care standards
Addressing customer questions, complaints, and service concerns
Helping control labor, waste, and operating expenses
Communicating business needs, concerns, and opportunities to the owner
Helping develop promotions, community partnerships, and customer-engagement ideas
Planning and working community events
Assisting with private parties, sip-and-craft nights, rentals, and other special events as agreed upon
Performing other reasonable duties needed to support the successful operation of the shop

Required Qualifications

Applicants must have:

At least two years of coffee shop, café, or restaurant management experience
Previous barista experience
Experience operating and maintaining a commercial espresso machine
Experience training and supervising employees
Strong customer-service and communication skills
Experience with cash handling, inventory, scheduling, and daily operations
The ability to work independently and make responsible decisions
The ability to remain calm, professional, and organized during busy periods
Reliable transportation and dependable attendance
The ability to stand for extended periods and perform normal coffee shop duties
Availability to work a full-time schedule of approximately 40 hours per week
Flexibility to work weekends in the future if operating hours expand

Food-handler certification is required. The selected candidate must obtain or maintain any certifications required for the position. If the candidate lacks the certification at the time of application, they must be enrolled in an approved course for certification or have applied within their first two weeks of hire.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is:

Dependable
A confident and supportive leader
A self-starter
Positive and welcoming
Organized
Comfortable working in a new business environment
Excited to help develop systems and improve operations
Able to balance employee leadership with hands-on customer service
Interested in building long-term relationships with customers and the surrounding community

Compensation and Benefits

Skyway Coffee offers:

Starting pay of $20 per hour
Full-time employment averaging 40 hours per week
Paid time off in accordance with company policy and applicable law
One free beverage per scheduled shift
A 10% employee discount
Performance and compensation reviews
The opportunity to help build a new coffee shop from the ground up
A meaningful voice in menu development, operating decisions, employee culture, and community programming
Opportunities to help create and lead private events and community activities
The chance to work directly with the owner in a growing local business

Schedule

The initial schedule is expected to be based around Monday through Friday operating hours of 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

The General Manager’s schedule may include time before opening or after closing for preparation, inventory, payroll, meetings, training, and administrative responsibilities.

Weekend hours may be introduced in the future. The schedule, operating hours, and job responsibilities may adjust as the business grows.

Please submit your resume through Indeed and complete the required screening questions.

Applicants selected for consideration may be contacted for an initial interview, a second interview, reference checks, and a practical or scenario-based assessment.
