Reports to: Director of Training & Development

With a projected 1,000 cafes in the United States by 2030, Paris Baguette is one of the fastest-growing neighborhood bakery cafés in the world. Our vision is to reestablish the neighborhood bakery café as the heart of the community around the world. Paris Baguette’s mission is to bring expertly crafted baked and brewed goods through a warm and welcoming bakery café experience that delivers joy to everyone.

If you are someone who has heart, wants to spread joy, nourish community and is ready to rise to the occasion, we are looking for you to join our growing team!

This is an individual contributor role ideal for someone with cafe or retail leadership experience who is equally comfortable facilitating in-person training and developing high-quality, practical training content.

• Track training participation and outcomes; recommend improvements to ensure training is relevant and impactful.
• Contribute to training communications, including newsletters, updates, and follow-up materials.
• Translate our company’s mission, vision, and values into compelling training content that inspires cafe teams and reinforces our culture.
• Support other Training activities as needed when GM training is not in session, including café operations training.
• Visit cafes, as needed, to observe operations, gather insights, and ensure training materials address real-world challenges.
• Other duties may be assigned.

• High emotional intelligence and the ability to work collaboratively across diverse teams.
• Passionate about empowering and developing others while upholding brand standards.
• Teams Win! Must be a team player who fosters a collaborative and engaged teamwork environment.
