We do things a bit differently round here. More than just a job, we have each other’s backs, we inspire each other and we don’t take ourselves too seriously – we’re family.

• 3-month Assistant Manager training plan from Day 1
• Competitive bonus package
• Employee referral bonus for every successful friend referred as a Manager, you will receive a £1000 reward (if you work in the UK) / €1000 cash (if you work in the ROI)
• Contributory pension scheme (if you work in the UK only)
• Reward membership and access to great discounts
• Internal progression opportunities; we aim for 70% internal progression from Assistant Managers to Assistant General Managers

The sauce we need

• Passion, pride, and the drive to motivate and engage a team
• As an Assistant Manager, you will live and breathe our brand and values
• Previous management experience and buckets of energy to inspire and motivate
