Job Details

We're not just another chicken joint—we're one of the fastest-growing brands in the game, built on hand-made food and bold ambition. At Slim Chickens, every tenderloin gets the royal treatment: brined, buttermilk-soaked, hand-breaded, and cooked fresh to order. That same care and craft goes into how we grow our people.

If you've got hustle, heart, and an entrepreneurial spark, this is the place to prove yourself and shape your career. Our team thrives on real connection—working fast, thinking big, and building something that makes an impact every day. Here, you'll be trusted to make decisions, empowered to own your work, and part of a crew that's taking this brand to the next level.

Slim Chickens is growing fast. The only question is—are you ready to grow with us?

Purpose of the Position

Are you obsessed with driving traffic and squeezing every drop of ROI out of a campaign? Slim Chickens is looking for a Performance Marketing Manager who can blend the art of local activation with the science of analytics.

This is a hybrid role where you'll own both sides of the marketing coin: energizing local markets with smart, scrappy media, grassroots, and 3PD campaigns and diving into digital dashboards to optimize performance at scale. Franchisees will look to you to uncover opportunities, activate high-impact programs, and translate data into wins.

What You'll Do

• Track and optimize campaigns across digital, social, LRM, and app promotions.
• Partner with agencies and internal teams to amplify what's working—and pivot fast on what's not.
• Turn dashboards (DOMO, GA, Meta, OLO, Punchh, Brink) into action plans everyone can understand.
• Build quarterly franchisee plans that fuel sales, local buzz, and community engagement.
• Inspire and educate operators with fresh, traffic-driving ideas.
• Spot trends early, test new opportunities, and shake things up when it makes sense.

Requirements

• 2–5+ years in performance + field marketing (restaurant/retail/franchise a plus).
• Proven analytical chops—you love data almost as much as winning.
• Experience collaborating with franchisees or multi-unit operators.
• Comfortable balancing strategy with rolling up your sleeves.
• Strong with Excel, dashboards, and campaign tools.
• A curious, challenger mindset that's always looking for the next edge.

Minimum Education: Bachelor Degree in Marketing, Communications, or Advertising.

Benefits

• Health insurance
• Vision insurance
• Flexible Spending Account
• 401(k)
• Pet Insurance
• Paid time off
• Life Insurance
• Adoption Assistance
