Why Sonny's?
Between the food, the people and the benefits, Sonny’s is a great place to work. Not to mention our commitment to our communities and the fact that we are 50 years strong and still growin’. We have an amazing history and an awesome future ahead that we’d love for you to be a part of.
Make BBQ & a Difference
Make someone’s day—not just by serving up slow-smoked BBQ but by giving back to the local community through Random Acts of BBQ® and our ‘Q the Kindness® Mission.
Built to Last
We’ve kept our smokers going strong since ‘68 because we share a genuine passion for all people and BBQ. So you’ll always have a place to work that feels like home with a team that’s got your back.
Grow with Us
We love supporting your success and promoting from within. Over the years we’ve had dishwashers become Pitmasters. And servers become owners.
Management Opportunities
Lead a great team while you deliver the one-of-a-kind experience that Sonny’s is known for. Managers enjoy competitive pay and benefits, plus the added bonus of your dog being REALLY happy to see you when you come home smelling like BBQ.
There are a lot of moving parts to our restaurants. And our Managers manage to bring ‘em all together in beautiful BBQ harmony.
From ensuring all of our staff have everything they need to succeed to ensuring our guests have a great time enjoying great BBQ, our Managers are true leaders. You won’t find ‘em cooped up in some stuffy back office all day. They’re on the front lines. In our dining rooms and kitchens and foyers. They’re greeting Guests, supporting Servers and makin’ sure our restaurants run as smooth as sweet sauce at all times.
What’s it take to be a Sonny’s Manager? In addition to meetin’ education and experience requirements, you’ve gotta have deep knowledge, understanding and appreciation for BBQ and the people who enjoy it. You’ve gotta make sure our restaurants are always clean and operatin’ at 100% or darn close. But above all, you gotta make Southern hospitality your top priority.
