At Grandpa Joe's Candy Shop, we don't just sell candy-we create moments people remember.
Whether it's helping someone rediscover a favorite childhood treat, watching a kid experience their first giant candy wall, or making every guest feel welcome the moment they walk through the door, we're in the business of creating smiles.
As we continue to grow, we're looking for an experienced Assistant Store Manager who is ready to lead from the front, build an incredible team, and help deliver unforgettable customer experiences every single day.
Founded in Pittsburgh in 2012, Grandpa Joe's Candy Shop has grown from one neighborhood candy store into 23 locations (and counting!) across Pennsylvania, Ohio, Florida, West Virginia,Texas and Minnesota.
In addition to our retail stores, we distribute candy and soda to more than 15,000 independent retailers nationwide. We're still growing, and we're looking for great people who want to grow with us.
This is more than a management position.
We're looking for someone who enjoys being on the sales floor, coaching a team, merchandising a store that surprises customers around every corner, and leading by example.
You'll spend your day:
If you've managed in a larger retail environment but miss having the freedom to truly influence your store, you'll feel right at home here.
Your ideas matter. We're looking for leaders who enjoy improving processes, solving problems, and helping shape the future of our stores.
We're expanding, and that creates opportunities. As Grandpa Joe's grows, so do the careers of the people who help build it.
No two days are exactly alike. New products, seasonal displays, community events, and excited customers make every day different.
We take our work seriously-but not ourselves. We believe retail should be fun. Expect laughter, creativity, and a team that enjoys coming to work.
We're a family-owned business with a family culture. We support one another, celebrate wins together, and genuinely enjoy working alongside great people.
Every Grandpa Joe's location is part of its neighborhood. We love participating in community events, supporting local organizations, and becoming a place families visit again and again.
Our Assistant Store Managers lead by example.
You'll help oversee daily operations including:
Most importantly, you'll create an environment where both customers and team members enjoy being.
You have previous retail management experience in a fast-paced, hands-on environment and know how to motivate a team.
This is a full-time position (35- 40 hours per week), including evenings, weekends, and holidays. Dependable transportation is required.
You genuinely enjoy talking with customers-whether they're five years old or eighty-five-and love helping create memorable experiences.
You're positive, approachable, and understand that great stores are built by great teams.
You take pride in clean, organized spaces and enjoy creating visually exciting displays that keep customers exploring.
You don't wait to be told what needs to be done. You lead with enthusiasm, take initiative, and help make your team better every day.
If you're looking for a management role where you can lead a great team, have fun, make a real impact, and be part of a company that's still growing, we'd love to meet you.
Apply today and help us create the sweetest retail experience anywhere.
