Shift Manager

Our Mission: To create moments of joy through freshly baked pretzels, world-famous cinnamon rolls, and exceptional guest experiences.

Your Mission: Bring that mission to life—every single shift.

Since day one, Auntie Anne’s has been known for its hand-rolled pretzels and fresh-baked goodness, while Cinnabon has delighted guests with warm, irresistible treats and iconic Makara® cinnamon. Together, we create memorable experiences that turn everyday moments into something special.

We're growing our team and looking for motivated, people-first leaders to step into a Shift Manager role.

If you're ready to blend leadership with positivity, pride, and great food, this is your moment.

As a Shift Manager , you're more than a supervisor—you're the heartbeat of the bakery and pretzel shop. When the General Manager or Assistant Manager is away, you keep operations running smoothly, the team energized, and guests leaving happy and satisfied.
