Einstein Bros. Bagels

Breakfast with us, and dinner with your loved ones! At Einstein Bros. Bagels, we believe in the bagel, and we’ve been baking bagels fresh daily since 1995. We believe that our bakeries do more than just make the best breakfast in the neighborhood. We guarantee two things: First, to spread a little more joy and happiness in the world. To laugh, smile, and enjoy each other’s company that much more. And to us, there’s no better way to do that than with the bagel. Second: we are committed to work-life balance for our team. Our stores close at 2pm! You will never miss that dance recital or once in a lifetime concert. Join our team!

We are looking for a Shift Leader!

Our Shift Leaders are like the cream cheese on the bagel. The bagel is delicious on its own, but the cream cheese adds a LOT of flavor and helps hold it all together!

What’s a day in the life of a Shift Leader?

Our Shift Leaders collaborate directly with the General Manager to help motivate the team to deliver a great guest experience. We empower Shift Leaders to take charge and set the morale and tone of the team. They provide feedback and coach team members when needed. Shift Leaders open and close the store with little to no supervision. Our teams take pride in ensuring the quality of the food and beverages we serve; and by keeping a safe and clean store environment. As a Shift Leader, you will have the opportunity to rise like one of our bagels and grow your career. Many of our General Managers started as Shift Leaders and Team Members! Why would you want to work anywhere else? If this sounds like a place where you would love coming, making peoples’ mornings, we’d love to hear from you.

What’s in it for you:

• Paid time off after 90-days of employment!**
• You will never have to work past 3PM (Yep, you read that right! NO EVENINGS & NO NIGHTS!)
• Competitive pay, plus cash and credit card tips*
• Employee Assistance Program – FREE therapy, financial advising, legal advice, etc.
• Learn To Live – FREE online life coaching, webinars, to help with stress, anxiety, and more
• 401K with company match!
  

What we are looking for:

• High school diploma or equivalent
• Must be 18 years or older
• Must be able to work varied hours/days as business dictates including early hours (as early as 3am depending on the restaurant) and weekends
• Must be able to pass background check as applicable with local, state, and federal law
• Must be in possession of, or able to acquire, a ServSafe Certification prior to completion of leadership training
• Possession of a current, valid, state issued driver’s license (always preferred but only required at specific locations) and meet the driving qualifications as required by Company policy

*Tip eligibility subject to state regulations.
