Ready to turn a job into a lifestyle?

Ireland is a new, emerging market for JOE & THE JUICE: two stores are open, a third is on the way, and a healthy pipeline is lined up for next year. Based in Ireland, the role is part of UK&I Operations, working closely with Real Estate, Construction, People and HQ. Reporting to the Operations Director UK&I, this role leads JOE in Ireland end to end. It combines strategic market building with hands-on leadership on the floor, ensuring every store starts strong and the JOE culture is cared for from day one. As the market grows, you will build a team of experts around you and plan talent and succession early - a natural next step for an established District/Area Manager, and a chance to shape a market from the ground up.

• Own and evolve the Ireland growth plan, turning an ambitious roadmap into clear priorities for stores, people and openings
• Build and scale a strong store management team, recruiting, training and coaching Store Managers while staying close to the team as we grow
• Lead each new store opening from preparation to launch and the first months of trading, partnering with Real Estate and Construction on site input, build progress and handover
• Lead hands-on operations, being on the floor regularly to coach in the moment, spot issues early and fix workflows that slow the team down
• Oversee and improve product quality, service, hygiene and guest experience, balancing global JOE standards with local Irish needs
• Ensure compliance with Irish health and safety, food safety and employment regulations in every store
• Own the Ireland P&L and budget (sales, margin, labour, waste and overheads), using trading data to find opportunities across all sales channels
• Champion the JOE virtues (Positive Attitude, Inclusion, Social Ties, Growth), driving engagement, retention and talent planning as the market scales

JOE & THE JUICE is a people-centric food and beverage company built around culture, offering much more than just juice, sandwiches, and coffee.

We believe in four simple virtues that shape everything we do:

• Positive Attitude
• Inclusion
• Social Ties
• Growth

For us, this means that when you choose a cup-half-full mindset, welcome people from every background, build real friendships across the bar by creating great guest experiences, and use every shift as a chance to learn something new, you become more than just a Juicer; like us, you continue to search and find purpose and meaning in what you do.

From your first day, you'll be part of an international network of Juicers who support each other, celebrate wins together, and push each other to grow. You will learn by doing and move through our Moneyball career path, our internal system that tracks your performance and fast-tracks you toward promotion. Most of our leaders have earned their stripes behind the bar (fun fact: over 75% of our employees started as Juicers!), so you will always be part of a company built on that same journey. If you love a fast-paced environment, music, and people, and you like the idea of turning a job into a lifestyle, JOE can become a place to build skills, friendships, and a career that takes you across cities, countries, and roles.

Founded in Copenhagen in 2002, JOE & THE JUICE has grown into a global fast-casual concept with more than 500 locations across 25+ countries and over 7,000 employees worldwide, with our sights set on 1,000 stores by 2028.

Our people-centric culture and sustainability agenda are part of our Nordic heritage, and remain central to our commitment to a better future. Along the way, internal workshops and mentorship sharpen your skills, while exchange programs and international assignments can take you across our markets.
