Match and Fable

THE ‘LOUIS LASSEN’ ROLE ($45,000 – $55,000+)

Match and Fable Inc. - Calgary, AB, Canada

While there’s an ongoing debate as to who the original creator of the hamburger is … Louis Lassen is most frequently credited with fashioning the very first one, in New Haven, Connecticut … in 1900. 
As the story goes … a customer was a bit pressed for time and asked Louis for something “quick and delicious”.

Lassen grabbed some ground beef and mixed it with the ingredients he usually used for his steak sandwiches. He then broiled the ground beef and pressed it between two pieces of toasted bread.

No one could ever have imagined the popularity the hamburger would go on to enjoy.

In fact … it’s estimated that Americans consume 50,000,000,000 (and that’s not a typo – 50 BILLION) … hamburgers each year!

What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?
Nothing really.

That said … our client is one of the fastest growing hamburger chains in North America!

They have asked Match and Fable’s Mark Vandyke to assist them in their search for a General Manager for their Calgary, Alberta location.
