Job description

This is a story about growing up but never getting old.

Since day-one when our founder, Jimmy, opened his first Jimmy John’s sandwich shop, we’ve had the determination and badassery to settle for nothing less than the best. We are in early every morning baking fresh bread and slicing vegetables, and we’re not afraid to have a little (or a lot) of fun along the way. We succeed together as a family because let’s be honest, nobody can compete with the Rockstars of Jimmy John’s.

Calling all Go-Getters.

As a General Manager, you will oversee day-to-day restaurant operations. While managing food and labor costs, you will recruit, hire, and train team members helping them understand what success looks like. In other words: let’s do whatever it takes to make kick-ass sandwiches for our customers.

Core Responsibilities

  • Store Operations & Efficiency: Oversee daily opening/closing procedures, bread baking, produce prep, meat slicing, and line assembly. Jump onto the line or register during peak rush periods to maintain speed and order accuracy.
  • Team Leadership & Staffing: Recruit, hire, schedule, train, and manage assistant managers, shift leads ("PICs"), line staff ("InShoppers"), and delivery drivers.
  • Financial & Cost Management: Drive profitability by managing Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), labor costs, inventory ordering, waste reduction, cash handling, and daily/weekly financial reports.
  • Delivery Operations: Route deliveries and manage driver flow to maximize speed and coverage.
  • Brand Integrity & Quality Control: Execute Jimmy John’s systems, recipes, and cleaning protocols with 100% adherence to corporate brand standards. Ensure full compliance with health department regulations and food safety guidelines.

To qualify for this rockstar opportunity, you are eligible to work in the U.S. and meet the age requirements and experience outlined within the application.

Let’s get this bread.

Be part of a culture of Go-Getters and Rockstars who succeed through goal setting, willingness to learn and a can-do attitude. Perks include:

  • Advancement Opportunities
  • Employee Discounts*

Minimum requirements

2 Years General manager experience

4 years of manager experience over all

Valid Drivers license

Each Jimmy John’s franchisee is an independent employer and thus solely responsible for hiring decisions and all other employment-related matters for the franchisee’s restaurant(s). The terms “Company,” “Jimmy John’s,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to the specific entity (corporate or franchise) that owns and operates the Jimmy John’s restaurant to which you are applying.

Jimmy John’s and its franchisees are equal opportunity employers.

*Subject to availability and eligibility requirements.

We slice our all-natural* meats and fresh veggies in-house every day. Our fresh-baked bread is made right here where you can see it, and our house-made tuna salad is fresh every day. The flavor of a ripe tomato, crisp shredded lettuce, combined with fresh-baked bread, fresh-sliced meat and real Hellmann's® mayo - that's when the magic happens. Made with love every single day since 1983. That's Jimmy Fresh!
