Job Description
Flynn Group, established by Greg Flynn in 1999, began its journey with the acquisition of eight Applebee's restaurants and has since grown into the largest Applebee's franchisee in the world. With over 460 Applebee's restaurants across 24 states, Flynn Group has expanded beyond the Applebee's brand to include a diverse portfolio of renowned restaurant brands such as Arby's, Panera Bread, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Wendy's, and even fitness centers like Planet Fitness. This growth was fueled by both the construction of new locations and acquiring other franchise operators, which positioned Flynn Group as a premier operator within the restaurant and franchise industries.
