About The Position

Legend Subs is hiring a Manager in Training (MIT) for its Jersey Mike's franchise group, which has 10 locations across New Hampshire and Massachusetts and plans to develop 8 more. The MIT program provides structured, hands-on leadership development and a path to becoming a General Manager. The program takes approximately 4–6 months to complete, depending on experience, performance, and leadership readiness. Participants receive direct mentorship and oversight from a District Manager and a designated Training Store Manager.

The schedule is approximately 45 hours per week and includes a combination of opening, midday, and closing shifts. MITs learn to lead shifts, oversee restaurant operations, build and develop teams, manage finances and business performance, and promote sales through marketing and community relationships. The program concludes with a trial week operating a location independently, followed by a P&L presentation and performance review. Advancement is performance-based, with opportunities to progress to General Manager and, as the organization expands, to other leadership roles.
