Job Description

Flynn Group, founded by Greg Flynn, embarked on its journey in 1999 with the acquisition of 8 Applebee's restaurants. Over the next two decades, the company experienced substantial growth by both building new stores and acquiring other franchise operators, eventually becoming the largest Applebee's franchisee globally. This robust foundation enabled the Flynn Group to expand beyond Applebee's into additional brands, countries, and industries, creating a broad and diversified portfolio. Today, Flynn Group proudly operates over 460 Applebee's restaurants across 24 states, making it a dominant force in the casual dining sector.

Flynn Applebee's is one of seven premier brands under the Flynn Group umbrella, which has risen to become the largest franchise operator worldwide. Flynn Group's brand portfolio includes iconic names such as Applebee's, Arby's, Panera Bread, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Wendy's, and Planet Fitness. This diversification into multiple market segments highlights Flynn Group's commitment to growth, innovation, and excellence across the food service and fitness industries. Central to Flynn Group's operations is its mission to be the premier operator within each brand. This mission is supported by a strong set of core values: Care Genuinely for People, Play like a Champion, and Win as One, which guide all its employees and define workplace culture.

The role of an Applebee's Cook at Flynn Group offers an exciting opportunity for individuals looking for a fun, dynamic, and flexible work environment with room for professional growth.
