Are you completely done with the industry or have you thought about the corporate side of QSR? You’re insights as a GM would be incredibly valuable to corporate!

Do you enjoy the food industry? If so, there are many others avenues in food you can explore. You could get managerial certification for retail food etc. many of those certs go a long way in food manufacturing or larger companies outside of fast foods. Your experience is valuable. Consider hotel management in the restaurant sector? Goodluck!!

Check out on of the Coca-Cola bottlers. They have jobs like Merchandiser or Account Manager, you will be in stores/restaurants.

Sounds like you have skills that could easily transfer into a leadership type of role in another field. I have a peer who had a similar background and they moved into the health insurance field and did various roles such as training and supervising.

DM me your email address?
