Join the Opening Team at Tous les Jours Powell!
Tous les Jours is growing, and we are excited to bring our fresh-baked breads, pastries, cakes, and handcrafted drinks to Powell, Ohio.
We are looking for a motivated and dependable Team Leader / Shift Manager to help open our newest location and build an exceptional team from the ground up.
We are especially looking for someone who is hungry to grow, humble to learn, kind in the way they lead others, and thoughtful in the decisions they make.
You do not need to know everything on day one. What matters most is that you are coachable, take ownership, care about people and guests, and are committed to becoming a well-rounded leader.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys working with people, leads by example, and takes pride in creating an organized and welcoming environment. As a Team Leader, you will help run smooth shifts while delivering the warm guest experience Tous les Jours is known for.
You will support daily operations, coach and encourage team members, protect product quality, and help build a respectful, high-performing, team-first culture.
If you are ready to grow with an expanding brand, make a meaningful impact, and help build something special from day one, we would love to meet you.
