Who we place
C-level. The kitchen. Every department a growth brand needs.
We do hire C-level. We also fill general managers, executive chefs, AGMs, sous chefs, kitchen managers, restaurant and store managers — and the corporate departments that make unit five possible.
Executive
C-level, president, VP, and director. The people who own the next twenty units.
Restaurant & store leadership
General managers, executive chefs, AGMs, sous chefs, kitchen managers, and restaurant or store managers.
Growth departments
Finance, marketing, tech, people & benefits, development / real estate, purchasing, facilities — and the rest of a scaling brand.
Confidential executive searches
C-level
CEO, COO, CMO, CFO
President
Brand and group presidents
Vice President
Operations, culinary, people, development
Director
Ops, culinary, development, finance
Those executive mandates rarely hit the public board. GMs, chefs, sous, kitchen managers, and corporate roles often do. Either way, start a conversation.

How a 3SP search works
We don't send 40 resumes and call it a search.
- 01
Scorecard
What “good” actually means in this restaurant and this role — not a recycled job description.
- 02
Market map
Who is sitting in comparable roles, quietly. Direct outreach plus the live board.
- 03
Short slate
Usually four to six people a hiring manager would actually hire.
- 04
Working interview
On the floor, in the kitchen, or across the leadership table. Instagram energy is not a reference.
Compensation published
Every live search lists target pay. Candidates notice. So do operators tired of 90-day ghosts.
One team. Five ways we help you scale.
Recruiting is the front door. The rest of 3SP is behind it.
Restaurants we ranRecruitment
C-level to store manager. Finance, people, tech, development — the whole growth brand.
Real Estate
Site selection, lease negotiation, capital partnerships.
Management Dev
Leadership systems that survive unit five.
Project Mgmt
Owner's rep from architect to opening day.
Capital Advisory
Growth capital for scalable consumer brands.
