Job Description

Flynn Group, established by Greg Flynn, embarked on its journey in 1999 with the acquisition of eight Applebee's restaurants. Over the course of two decades, the company expanded significantly by constructing new stores and acquiring additional franchise operators, eventually becoming the largest Applebee's franchisee in the world. This strong foundational growth enabled Flynn Group to broaden its horizons beyond Applebee's, diversifying into multiple brands, countries, and industries. Currently, the Flynn Group owns and manages over 460 Applebee's restaurants spread across 24 states in the U.S., highlighting its vast footprint within the casual dining sector.

Flynn Applebee's operates as one of the seven premier brands within the Flynn Group's extensive portfolio.

The company's mission revolves around being the premier operator within each brand they manage. Flynn Group pursues this ambition by adhering to core values centered on genuine care for people, playing like champions, and winning collectively as one team.
