Job Description
We are not your everyday fast food franchisee. We are a rapidly growing Jimmy John's franchisee committed to delivering not just food, but a unique and exceptional experience to our customers. At Jimmy John's, our culture thrives on the principles of F.A.S.S.T.—fresh, friendly, speedy, simple, and tasty—and we are seeking General Managers who embody these values to lead our dynamic teams. Our approach goes beyond traditional fast food; we focus on crafting fresh sandwiches with the highest quality ingredients while maintaining a clean and inviting environment for our customers.
As a General Manager with our franchise, you will play a pivotal role in the success and growth of our restaurants. This is a full-time position offering a competitive salary based on experience, along with comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision plans, paid time off, and opportunities for career advancement. We value leadership, initiative, and a passion for food service excellence. Our General Managers are key leaders who manage all aspects of the restaurant operations—this includes overseeing staff, ensuring swift and accurate order fulfillment, maintaining store cleanliness and organization, and driving profitability. You will be responsible for hiring, training, evaluating, and developing your team to provide world-class customer service consistently.
The role demands a hands-on management style where you will be involved in daily food preparation, inventory control, cash handling, and adherence to company procedures. You will forecast food needs, manage inventory efficiently to reduce waste and theft, and implement systems that uphold our high standards of quality and safety. A successful General Manager at our franchise leads by example, supports their team during busy periods, and fosters a positive and productive work environment that encourages retention and growth.
We are dedicated to helping our leaders develop their careers within our organization. General Managers have clear pathways to advance into roles such as Area Manager or Director of Operations, supported by mentorship programs and continuous learning opportunities. Our leadership development programs encourage pride and ownership in your location, empowering you to build both management skills and operational expertise.
In addition to competitive pay and comprehensive benefits, our franchise offers a work atmosphere that is both fast-paced and fun. We emphasize teamwork, respect, and a commitment to our core values. We are looking for individuals who are reliable, driven, and eager to contribute to a thriving business. If you have the stamina and dedication to work 50-80 hours per week, including holidays and weekends as needed, and want to be part of a team that values your contributions, we invite you to apply and show us what you are all about.
