About the role

You'll be the engine of the kitchen - prepping, cooking, and serving up our legendary chicken with pride and precision. It's fast, it's hands-on, and it's all about bringing the flavour while backing your team every step of the way.

What will you spend your time doing?

• Own the kitchen. You'll be the heart of the hustle - prepping, cooking, and serving up our famous chicken to perfection.
• Stick to the standards. You'll follow our prep and cooking processes to the letter, keeping it safe, clean, and tasty.
• Keep it fresh. Quality matters. You'll make sure every piece is hot, crisp, and finger lickin' good.

What we'd love from you:

• Love for good food. You care about cooking it right and serving it hot - every time.
• Can-do attitude. You show up, step up, and keep the momentum going.
• Pace and precision. Fast hands, sharp focus, and you don't cut corners.

Keeping it real

We 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. See, 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.

What's in it for you

• Pay rate: £12.21 per hour
