Assistant restaurant general manager\nWelcome to KFC. Home of the real ones.\n\nWe sell the world’s best chicken. We’ve done it for a long old time — since 1939, when the idea of\nfinger lickin’ good chicken popped into our Colonel’s head. Now, we proudly serve 1000+ communities across the UK and Ireland, bringing the grit, pride and iconic reputation that started in Kentucky all those years ago.\n\nPeople who are original. Individual. Fresh. We come to work to be ourselves, and to make something of ourselves. We bring the graft and the laughs every day — building our own community, as we serve our original recipe chicken to the ones we’re in.\n\nIn our place, ambition grows. Careers build. Potential goes further. Our doors are open, and they can take you anywhere.\n\nIf you join our team, we only ask one thing. That you be you.\n\nBecause that makes us, us.\n\nSounds good? Great. Here’s more about the job.\n\nAbout the role\n\nSupport the team, take charge of the day-to-day, and help hit those performance goals while ensuring your team doesn’t just meet expectations, but crushes them. Own the operations, the atmosphere, and the guest experience, helping everything run smoothly and creating a place where both guests and the team feel right at home.\n\nWhat will you spend your time doing?\n\nSupport like a leader. Assist in taking ownership of the restaurant — help drive performance, hit goals, and keep the vibe alive.\n\nHelp build a dream team. Train, coach, and motivate your crew to not only meet standards but go beyond them.\n\nHit those targets. Own your KPIs, support the team, and make sure every shift delivers what’s expected.\n\nKeep everything running smooth. Stay on top of the admin — from rosters to stock, you help ensure the behind-the-scenes work is solid.\n\nMake every guest feel special. Assist in turning first-timers into regulars with moments that keep them coming back.\n\nWhat we'd love from you:\n\nYou lead by example. You’ve helped manage teams before and know how to bring out the best in others.\n\nYou understand people. You support building strong teams, handle tough convos, and make sure everyone feels valued.\n\nYou keep things running. You help ensure smooth operations — efficient, clean, compliant — even when things get hectic.\n\nKeeping it real\n\nWe don’t hire staff — we hire people. People with real lives and aspirations, building real careers. Each of us has something special to add to the mix we call work, and we’ll always encourage you to add your perspective.\n\nSee, at KFC, everyone’s welcome — whatever your background, and whatever future you’re creating. We’ll look out for you because you’re one of us, not because you work for us. We’ll invest in your potential, because it’s what we’ve always done. But most of all, we’ll give you the freedom to be you, wherever (and whoever) you happen to be.\n\nWhat’s in it for you:\nWe offer benefits that make your life that little bit easier, because we know the juggle is real.\n\nQuarterly BONUS that rewards the hustle\n\nExtra holiday – more time to recharge\n\nLife assurance – we’ve got you covered\n\nFree chicken & chips every shift\n\n25% staff discount\n\nGym discounts to keep you moving\n\n200+ high street perks & cashback\n\nWellbeing support that actually helps\n\nKFC for everyone:\nWhoever you are and wherever you’re from, KFC is a place where you can bring the real\nyou to work. We’re here to support you in being yourself, whether you work with us, or are\ntrying to.\n\nOur promise is this: every person who applies\nto a role at KFC, regardless of age, background, ethnicity, gender, ability, religion or sexual orientation, will have an equal opportunity\nto work here. We don’t just welcome, we encourage applications from underrepresented groups in all industries.\n\nIf you’d like any additional support with\nyour application, have a disability or condition that may affect your performance during the recruitment process, or have any other requirements — just let us know. We’ll be\nthere to help you be the real you.\n\nReady?\nWe hope so. If you’re ready to be part of our community, now’s the time to apply.\n\nWorried you aren’t ticking all the boxes? Don’t - we’d still love to hear from you.\n\n*\n\nWe do things a little differently here. Some of our restaurants are run by KFC directly (that’s our Equity team), while others are owned by our awesome Franchise partners. So, things like benefits might vary a bit depending on where you work – but the heart, the culture, and that finger lickin’ feeling? That’s the same wherever you join us.\n\n#Unitedbythebucket
