In return you will receive a competitive base salary up to £38,000 per annum plus a generous bonus and excellent benefits! Our amazing and diverse teams are made up of chefs, front and back of house as well as our in-house drivers - you won’t be dealing with third-party companies, just running a slick service of hand-made, hand-delivered pizza goodness!

£35,000 - £38,000

OTE - £44,000+

Who are we?

Yard Sale Pizza fired up the oven in 2014, starting with weekly supper clubs from our backyard in Hackney. We now offer delivery, dine-in and takeaway in 17 of our favourite neighbourhoods. Known for our collaborations, we’ve teamed up with illustrators, musicians, international chefs & local eateries- all on the quest for the perfect pie!

We’ve won London’s most-loved restaurant in Time Out’s 2016 Love London awards, were awarded Best Cheap Eats in the Observer Food Monthly Awards in 2017, and were voted London’s favourite pizza in Time Out’s inaugural Clash of the Slices in 2022.

We’re a young and fast-growing company who offer plenty of career progression for hard working and talented individuals.

Finsbury Park was the second string to our bow, opening in June 2016, serving our delicious pizzas to all the hungry North Londoners in N4, N5, N16 & N7, for dine-in, takeaway and delivery.

What will I be doing?

• Dealing with all elements of management, including both kitchen and operations.
• Supervising staff performance across all levels.
• Reviewing periodic reports and adjusting operations to meet company KPIs.
• Keeping your team motivated whilst bringing a great energy!
• Working with our marketing team to bring new business in and establish the shop in its location.

What are we looking for?

• We’re looking for someone who absolutely loves to lead whilst setting a great example in the workplace.
• Someone who has a keen understanding of driving sales and smashing targets!
• Someone with exceptional interpersonal skills.
• An individual who has a few years experience as a GM would be amazing!
• It would be advantageous if you have previously worked within a takeaway setting.

What’s on offer:

• Enviable hospitality hours which means you won’t be working super‑late!
• 28 days annual leave
• Cycle-to-work
• Tech scheme
• Company Pension Contribution
• Work from home allowance
• Birthday Present
• Free pizza on shift and brilliant discounts to enjoy with family and friends across all our shops!
• Staff parties throughout the year (we close all the shops!)
• Fun away days and dinners throughout the year!
• Uniform and other merchandise to celebrate your milestones working with us
• Hospitality Action’s Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) offers free independent, expert, support and advice 24/7 to all YSP staff.

We would love for you to grow with us as we expand and learn all aspects of the business!- we have had so many internal success stories ! We are a super fast-growing company with plenty of amazing opportunities so it's a really exciting time to join us!

If this sounds good, then we can’t wait to hear from you!

Pizza & Love,

YSP
