Job Description

Flynn Group, founded by Greg Flynn in 1999, began its journey by acquiring eight Applebee's restaurants. Over the past two decades, the company experienced significant growth by building new stores and acquiring additional franchise operators, enabling Flynn Group to become the largest Applebee's franchisee in the world. With a strong foundation and strategic vision, Flynn Group has expanded beyond Applebee's, venturing into multiple brands, countries, and industries. Today, Flynn Group owns and operates more than 460 Applebee's restaurants across 24 states. This makes Flynn Applebee's one of seven premier brands under the Flynn Group umbrella, which stands as the largest franchise operator worldwide.
