Job Description

Flynn Group is a renowned leader in the franchise restaurant industry, founded in 1999 by Greg Flynn. Since its inception, the company has grown exponentially to become the largest franchise operator globally, managing an extensive and diverse portfolio of well-known brands including Applebee's, Arby's, Panera Bread, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Wendy's, and Planet Fitness. Flynn Group's commitment to excellence is anchored in its core values: Care Genuinely for People, Play like a Champion, and Win as One, which foster an inclusive and high-performance culture. Among its seven premier brands, Flynn Panera stands out as a dynamic and fast-growing Panera Bread franchisee. Since joining the Panera system in 2015 with the acquisition of 47 cafes, Flynn Panera has tripled in size and now ranks as the second-largest Panera franchisee worldwide, continuously expanding through the development of new stores and acquisition of other franchise operators.

Flynn Panera operates under a decentralized business model designed to empower local leadership teams for optimum operational performance. Each geographic area is overseen by a Market Leader, who supervises multiple Area Directors responsible for various clusters of cafes. Area Directors manage General Managers who handle the daily operations of individual cafes. Assistant Managers support the General Managers by managing departments and assisting with routine management tasks, while Team Managers help lead daily cafe activities. This structured approach allows Flynn Panera to maintain high standards of service and operational efficiency while fostering leadership development and career growth opportunities for team members.

Flynn Panera cafes offer a unique upscale, friendly environment characterized by artisan baked breads, made-to-order soups, salads, and sandwiches, complemented by specialty espresso beverages. The cafes are distinctly known for their grease- and alcohol-free atmosphere, reflecting the brand's commitment to quality and a positive work environment. The absence of fryers and late-night hours make Flynn Panera an attractive workplace for those who appreciate a morning schedule and a clean, welcoming environment.

The role of Retail Team Member at Flynn Panera is integral to delivering the company's exceptional guest experience. Retail Team Members are responsible for providing fast, accurate, and friendly customer service while maintaining a clean and inviting cafe atmosphere. Team Members are trained to attentively listen to guests' needs and ensure satisfaction with every interaction, playing a vital part in upholding the warm and welcoming vibe that defines the Panera brand. This position not only demands enthusiasm and energy but also a passion for teamwork and a dedication to exceptional service.

Flynn Panera values its employees and offers competitive pay, meal discounts, various insurance options, a daily pay program for immediate earnings access, opportunities for career advancement, and flexible scheduling. These benefits reflect the company's commitment to fostering a supportive and rewarding work environment where employees can thrive. Physical standards for this role include the ability to stand and move with energy for up to ten hours, safely lift objects up to 50 pounds, and possess the dexterity required to operate small tools and equipment. Flynn Panera is committed to accommodating all employees and applicants with disabilities, ensuring inclusivity and equal opportunity across all levels of employment.

Joining Flynn Panera means becoming part of a passionate, growing franchise that prioritizes stability, career growth, and a positive workplace culture. As a team member, you will contribute to a respected and recognized brand within the Flynn Group family, benefiting from extensive training and development programs designed to help you reach your full potential.
