The PIC will act as the primary decision-maker in the absence of managers, responsible for supervising food ordering, inventory management, food preparation, and staff oversight, guaranteeing a minimum loss from waste and theft. The role also involves hands-on duties such as assisting team members during peak periods, completing daily food preparations, and managing paperwork associated with operations. Moreover, the Person in Charge will support maintenance and upkeep of store equipment to ensure operational excellence.
This position offers competitive wages based on experience and provides a comprehensive benefits package including PPO medical, dental, and vision insurance, paid time off, and an employee meal benefit program. Individuals in this role have plentiful opportunities for career advancement, including pathways to become Assistant Managers, General Managers, Area Managers, or Directors of Operations within the expanding company. Through career development programs and mentorship, the PIC will gain valuable leadership and managerial skills in an upbeat, fast-paced restaurant environment. To be successful, candidates must possess physical stamina to work 40 to 50 hours per week, including weekends, holidays, and overtime, and have a strong commitment to embodying the company’s dedication to quality and exceptional service.
In summary, becoming a Person in Charge at this Jimmy John’s franchise means joining an energetic and supportive team committed to doing more than just fast food, but truly great food.
