Pinky Cole’s fast-growing vegan restaurant chain, Slutty Vegan, is on the hunt for a new president to lead its operations and drive its next phase of growth.
The company made the announcement via Instagram, calling for visionary candidates with at least a decade of leadership experience and a knack for innovation.
“This isn’t just a job… it’s a movement,” the post declared. “As the President of Slutty Vegan, you’ll be the driving force behind our operations, growth, and impact. You’ll work directly with our CEO to shape the future of the brand.”
The position has been vacant since March 2024, following the departure of the company’s first president, Jason Crain, who held the role from 2022.
The search reflects Cole’s ambition to find a leader who aligns with the brand’s bold, eclectic ethos while helping expand its footprint and cultural influence.
Pinky Cole’s Visionary Leadership
Since founding Slutty Vegan in 2018, Pinky Cole has positioned the brand as a cultural and culinary phenomenon.
With 11 locations across the southern and eastern U.S., the chain has become a beacon of vegan innovation, breaking stereotypes about plant-based cuisine while fostering a sense of community.
Beyond the restaurant, Cole is a multifaceted entrepreneur, author, and philanthropist. Recently named REVOLT’s Creative Visionary In Residence, she continues to amplify Black voices and cultural expression through creative endeavors.
“As someone deeply committed to challenging norms and amplifying Black voices, this is an incredible opportunity to collaborate with like-minded creatives and bring dynamic projects to life,” Cole stated in a press release about her REVOLT appointment.
Cole’s achievements also extend to publishing her book I Hope You Fail and spearheading impactful initiatives through the Pinky Cole Foundation, which focuses on philanthropy and community empowerment.
The new president will be instrumental in scaling Slutty Vegan’s operations while staying true to its mission of merging purpose with profit.
As Cole continues to redefine what a vegan restaurant brand can accomplish, the search for a dynamic leader underscores her commitment to ensuring that Slutty Vegan remains a pioneering force in the food and cultural space.
