Director of Operations / Operating Partner

Murr's Frozen Yogurt — Savannah, Georgia

Murr's is a new frozen yogurt concept coming to Savannah, and we're looking for the right partner to help build it from day one.

Savannah sits at the intersection of several powerful trends: one of the fastest-growing cities in the Southeast, a thriving tourism economy, a large student population anchored by SCAD, and a downtown market that continues to attract new residents, businesses, and investment. We believe it's the ideal home for a modern frozen yogurt concept built around simplicity, quality, and great design.

The concept is intentionally focused: four frozen yogurt flavors, a curated topping selection, beautiful branding, and an exceptional guest experience. We believe there is a significant opportunity to create a brand that feels nostalgic, timeless, and scalable.

We have secured financial backing and are now seeking an experienced full-time Operating Partner to help bring this vision to life.

This is not a traditional management position. We are looking for someone who wants meaningful ownership over the creative direction, operational systems, and future growth of the company.

Frozen Yogurt / Soft Serve experience preferred, but not required.

Responsibilities

• Lead the project from pre-opening through launch
• Assist with site selection, buildout, permitting, and vendor coordination
• Develop systems, procedures, and operating standards
• Recruit, train, and lead the opening team
• Oversee daily operations, financial performance, and guest experience
• Contribute creative ideas across branding, product development, marketing, and community engagement
• Help identify and execute future growth opportunities

What We're Looking For

• Strong operational and organizational skills
• Experience opening, managing, or scaling hospitality, retail, or consumer-facing businesses
• Entrepreneurial mindset and willingness to solve problems independently
• Financial literacy and comfort managing budgets and reporting
• Excitement about building something from scratch rather than stepping into an established company

What We Offer

• Competitive salary
• Profit-sharing and partnership opportunities
• Meaningful creative input from day one
• Ability to help shape the direction of the brand
• Significant expansion potential as the company grows

We are looking for someone who wants more than a job. We are looking for someone who wants to help build a company.

If that sounds interesting, let's grab a coffee and talk.
