About the Role

We are looking for an early-career HR professional who wants to build a long-term career in field-based Human Resources. This role is designed as a developmental pathway into a full HR Business Partner position, offering hands-on exposure to real-time restaurant operations, people leadership, and business partnership.

You will support a defined market of restaurant locations, working closely with Operations leaders to drive hiring, retention, training, employee relations, and team member engagement. This is not a desk-based HR role. You will spend the majority of your time in the field, partnering directly with leaders and teams where the work happens.

What You'll Do

• Support a small market of restaurant locations alongside Operations leadership

• Partner with Area Directors and General Managers on staffing, retention, and team development

• Assist with onboarding, orientation, and training execution

• Help drive hourly and management recruiting efforts within your market

• Support employee relations needs with guidance from senior HR leadership

• Monitor key people metrics such as turnover, staffing levels, and engagement

• Identify trends in the field and recommend practical solutions

• Participate in HR projects related to training, culture, and process improvement

• Build strong relationships with restaurant teams through consistent in-person presence

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources or a related field

• 0–2 years of experience in HR, operations, hospitality, retail, or other people-focused roles

• Strong desire to build a career in field-based Human Resources

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-accountability environment

• Willingness to spend the majority of time in restaurants supporting teams

• Strong communication and relationship-building skills

• Ability to take feedback, learn quickly, and continuously develop

• High level of ownership, accountability, and follow-through

• Willingness to relocate within approximately 12 months as future growth opportunities become available within Flynn Group

What Makes This Role Different

• Direct exposure to business operations, not just HR theory

• Hands-on development with a clear path into future HR Business Partner roles

• Opportunity to make an immediate impact on team member experience and business results

• High visibility with both HR and Operations leadership

• Long-term career growth opportunities within Flynn Group, the world's largest franchise operator, with more than 3,000 locations across 8 brands
