Job Description

Flynn Group is a distinguished leader in the restaurant franchising industry, having started its journey in 1999 with the acquisition of eight Applebee's locations by its founder, Greg Flynn. Over the ensuing two decades, the company has expanded its footprint through a strategy of building new stores and acquiring additional franchise operators, becoming the largest Applebee's franchisee globally. This impressive growth and strong foundation have enabled Flynn Group to evolve beyond a single brand to encompass a diverse portfolio of world-class restaurant brands across multiple market segments. Today, Flynn Group owns and operates more than 460 Applebee's restaurants in 24 states within the United States, making an indelible mark in the hospitality industry.

Furthermore, the company prioritizes the health, safety, and well-being of its team members by enforcing strict hygiene and safety protocols, including the use of protective masks, hand coverings, and regular handwashing with disinfectants during shifts.

Beyond the immediate employment benefits, Flynn Group also fosters an environment of inclusivity and accessibility, encouraging applications from diverse backgrounds and offering reasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities.
