Job Description

General Manager - JARS Cannabis

Ready to lead one of Arizona's most awarded dispensaries? JARS Cannabis was voted #1 Dispensary by Leafly last year, and as General Retail Manager, you'll lead a full store operation - team, sales, compliance, and customer experience - with real support behind you, not just a title.

Our mission is simple: provide quality cannabis that people can afford. As GM, you're the one making that happen at your location every day, backed by a company that's proud to be a great place to work.

This is a hands-on leadership role with genuine ownership. You'll oversee daily accounting, sales performance, compliance, and scheduling, while your Team Leads (our floor managers) handle day-to-day floor flow, assist sales associates and customer interactions under your direction. You're the one steering the location and developing your Team Leads into future GMs - all while getting to do it in an industry you're passionate about.

Reporting Structure & Support:

• You'll report to a District Manager who provides regular, in-person support - you're set up to succeed, not left to figure it out alone.
• Corporate HQ in Phoenix backs you up with dedicated sales, marketing, merchandising, procurement, compliance, and recruiting support, so you can focus on leading your team and your store.
• We provide formal training to set you up for success from day one.
• Clear SOPs and documentation back you and your team at every step - giving everyone a fair, consistent standard to work from while you build a great store.
• JARS is family-owned and operated - corporate is close and involved, not a distant franchise office.

Your Team:

• Team size ranges from 10 to 70 employees, depending on the location.
• You'll lead your Sales Associates, Inventory Members and Team Leads, coaching them and holding the location to our PAAR standards - Performance, Attitude, Attendance, and Respect - so customers have a great experience and the team thrives.

What You'll Own:

• Accounting & Reporting: Daily reconciliation and financial reporting for your location.
• Sales Performance: Tracking sales trends and adjusting staffing to hit goals.
• Compliance: Keeping your location fully compliant with Arizona regulations - inventory tracking, audit readiness etc.
• Team & Scheduling: Full scheduling ownership, coaching, and performance management across your team.
• Customer Experience: Ensuring every customer has a great visit, and stepping in when it matters most.
• Daily Operations: Opening/closing, security, and keeping the location running smoothly day to day.

We're looking for strong people leaders who care about compliance and customer satisfaction as much as they care about their team - this is true operational leadership, and a chance to make a real mark on one of Arizona's top dispensaries.

What We're Looking For:

• 2+ years in a retail or operations management role, ideally with experience owning scheduling, and compliance/audit outcomes.
• Comfort with hands-on accounting reconciliation and reporting.
• Experience leading teams of 20+ across multiple shifts.
• Valid Arizona Facility Agent (FA) Card, or the ability to obtain one before your start date - background check and fingerprinting required, typically approved within 3-5 business days. We'll guide you through this.
• Must be 21+, per Arizona regulatory requirements for all dispensary personnel.
• Comfortable staying active and on your feet throughout the day in a fast-paced retail environment.

Your First 90 Days:

• By 30 days, you'll be completing your training and prepping to begin running your store day-to-day with hands-on support from your District Manager.
• By 90 days, you'll have a full handle on daily operations and be holding your team to JARS standards - Performance, Attitude, Attendance, and Respect.

Schedule

• Managers typically work Tuesday–Saturday.
• As a salaried leader, you'll stay connected with your Team Leads, employees, and corporate on your days off when needed - you're a phone call away for your team.
• We're open 365 days a year, and holidays are some of our busiest and most rewarding days - a great chance to lead your team through it and see the results firsthand.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base salary: $65,00 – $70,000
• Quarterly performance bonus tied to compliance, employee retention, sales results, and customer satisfaction
• Medical, Dental, Vision, 401(k), Life Insurance, HSA
• Unlimited PTO - real and usable, coordinated around our peak-season blackout days
• Employee discounts and Employee Sample Program

Growth & Culture:

• We have a strong track record of promoting from within - Team Leads become GMs, GMs become District Managers, District Managers become Directors.

Ready to lead one of Arizona's top-rated dispensaries and build something great with us? We'd love to hear from you.
