What are the responsibilities and job description for the General Manager position at Jimmy John's?

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.

General Managers oversee all aspects of in-store operations, including but not limited to staffing/scheduling, food safety, inventory/stock ordering, COGS management, cash handling and brand compliance.  

The General Manager is responsible for ensuring the store is in exceptional order and that all employees are performing duties properly and efficiently.  General Managers must be self-motivated individuals who have superior leadership skills and execute systems and procedures with 100% integrity.   This is a Bonus-eligible position.

To qualify for this rockstar opportunity, you are 18 years of age or older and eligible to work in the U.S.

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:

  • BONUS ELIGIBILITY UP TO 11% OF STORE PROFITS EVERY 4 WEEKS
  • STOCK PLAN
  • 401(k), including matching contributions
  • Paid time off
  • Free meal every shift
  • Health, vision, and dental insurance
  • Growth potential in an expanding company

Not sure if your experience aligns? We encourage you to apply. Sandwich lover or not, all backgrounds are welcome here.

General Managers start at $44,000 per year and receive a higher salary once they complete Jimmy John's Manager Certification.

General Managers earn an estimated $60,000 per year when including bonus payouts.

For more information on benefits and eligibility, please speak with the store's general manager.

Company Introduction

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!

Salary : $50,000 - $65,000
