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.

What We're Looking For

Strong operational and organizational skills

Entrepreneurial mindset and willingness to solve problems independently

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.
