Our Team Managers make every shift shine.
As a Team Manager at Panera, you are key to the success of your bakery-cafe. You handle a wide range of responsibilities, all to ensure that both customers and associates have a great experience. Our Team Managers ensure that every shift is a great one—by developing our people, managing team performance, and building the warm, inclusive, authentic Panera team culture. As part of your bakery-cafe’s management team, you report directly to the General Manager or Operating Partner. Each Team Manager oversees a different part of the bakery-cafe, from food cost management to drive-thru, delivery, or catering operations.

As a Team Manager at Panera, your responsibilities include but are not limited to:
 

  • Build our culture of Warmth, Belonging, Growth, and Trust.

  • Be an ambassador of our Guiding Values and Behaviors:
  • Warmth for guests: Making people smile
  • Bold thoughts, brave actions: Learning, growing, and taking risks
  • Own it: Finding solutions and taking initiative
  • Win together: Working (and winning) as a team
  • Inspire and celebrate: Having fun and celebrating success
  • Rooted in respect: Seeing the best in others

  • Ensure extraordinary guest experiences.
    • Make sure every customer is delighted by the quality of our food, service, staff, and safety measures.
    • Build engaging relationships that lead to long-term, loyal customers.
       
  • Help your bakery-cafe grow and succeed.
    • Coach and motivate your team to exceed your bakery-cafe's goals—for sales, speed of service, order accuracy, and cafe health.
    • Train your team on food safety standards and ensure they are maintained.

  • Lead, manage, and develop your associates.
    • Hire and onboard new associates and provide ongoing training and development, including constructive feedback, as needed.
    • Keep your team energized and engaged. Recognize and celebrate individual and team achievements.

This opportunity is for you if:

  • You are warm, inclusive, trustworthy, and able to develop people.
  • You like the hustle and bustle of the hospitality industry.
  • You want to lead a fun, energized team that works hard and laughs often.
  • You can work flexible hours, including nights and weekends.
  • You’re committed to, and experienced with, health and food safety.
  • You want to have a positive impact on your customers and community.
  • You meet these requirements:
    • Proven ability to direct, motivate, coach, and develop others in a fast-paced environment
    • Demonstrated ability to run great shifts
    • 1+ year(s) of restaurant management experience preferred
    • ServSafe certification (or able to pass)
    • At least 18 years of age
    • Must submit to a background check

Growth opportunities at Panera:

  • A Path to Success: Most of our retail managers started as hourly associates. If your goal is Assistant General Manager or General Manager, we’ll help you get there.
  • Skills and Training: Every day at Panera we help build your skills and prepare you for a strong career—whatever your goals may be.
  • Nationwide Opportunities: We open about 100 new cafes each year—so you'll have plenty of chances to grow with us.

Around here, every day starts with a fresh batch of bread and a thousand possibilities.
 

Get ready to rise.
