• Guide new franchisees through their first opening.

Field Operations & Support

• Monitor quality and brand consistency.
• Provide regular follow-up and community-building for franchisees.
• Draft version of the Operations Manual completed.
• Pre-contractual Information Dossier and disclosure process established.

• Entrepreneurial, structured, and hands-on.

What we offer

• The opportunity to help grow a franchise network to 50 locations within 5 years.

• Direct collaboration with management, with significant responsibility and impact.
• Competitive salary package, aligned with experience and ambition.
