Store Manager - St Louis Area

Exit 11 Coffee is one of the only drive-thru coffee concepts in the area serving homemade, fresh, clean, and organic food and drink options, including award-winning, locally roasted organic coffee made on traditional Italian espresso equipment.

We work hard, move fast, and genuinely enjoy what we do. Our mantra is Happy Hustle — and we mean both words equally. We’re looking for a manager who can build and lead a team that lives that out every single day.

This is not a figurehead role. You are responsible for the people, the product, and the performance of your location.

Compensation: $60,000–$70,000

Schedule: Full-time, flexible shifts

What This Job Is

• Running day-to-day operations at a fast-paced, high-volume drive-thru location
• Training and developing baristas to perform at a high level while creating a positive guest experience
• Managing schedules, inventory, cash control, and workflow
• Conducting performance reviews, coaching employees, and addressing performance issues when needed
• Protecting and maintaining a strong team culture built on respect, accountability, and teamwork
• Working alongside your team in the drive-thrus daily
• Creating an environment where people show up ready to work, enjoy what they do, and take pride in what they serve
• Owning the outcome of every shift and leading through both busy and challenging moments

What We’re Looking For

• At least 5 years of total work experience, with a minimum of 1–2 years as a manager in a restaurant, café, or drive-thru environment
• Experience leading teams with different backgrounds and experience levels
• Proven ability to develop employees and hold team members accountable professionally and consistently
• Someone who understands that culture is built intentionally, protected daily, and reflected in how the team operates
• The ability to create an atmosphere that is both high-performing and genuinely enjoyable to be part of
• Organized, reliable, and comfortable having direct conversations with your team
• Calm under pressure and decisive when it counts
• Passionate about hospitality
• Genuine interest in quality ingredients, clean products, and doing things the right way
• The maturity to make tough decisions and follow through professionally

What We Expect From Your Team

You will be held accountable for the performance of your location, which means leading a team that is trained, engaged, hospitality-focused, and proud to be part of Exit 11 Coffee. Managers who communicate clearly, lead consistently, and build strong teams succeed here.

Training & Growth

We will train the right person on our systems, products, and standards. Coffee knowledge is a plus, but leadership ability and work ethic matter more. As Exit 11 Coffee expands, so do the opportunities for the people leading our locations.
