Job Description
Dunkin' Donuts is a globally recognized brand that originated in 1950 when Bill Rosenberg opened the first shop in Quincy, Massachusetts. Since franchising began in 1955, Dunkin' Donuts has grown to become the world's leading baked goods and coffee chain. Serving over 3 million customers daily, Dunkin' Donuts offers a diverse menu including 52 varieties of donuts, a wide range of coffee beverages, bagels, breakfast sandwiches, and other baked goods. This particular restaurant is a locally owned and operated Dunkin' Donuts franchise, known for its fast-paced, high-energy environment where team members engage with loyal customers regularly. Operating independently from Dunkin' Brands, Inc., this franchise provides a unique opportunity for individuals to work in a dynamic setting while enjoying a culture centered around community and customer service.

Candidates must be at least 21 years old where applicable, possess a high school diploma or equivalent, and have experience in restaurant or retail supervision.
