Restaurant General Manager – KFC

Welcome to KFC. Home of the real ones. We sell the world's best chicken. We've done it for a long time — since 1939, when the idea of finger‑lickin' good chicken popped into our Colonel's head. We proudly serve 1,000+ communities across the UK and Ireland, bringing the grit, pride and iconic reputation that started in Kentucky all those years ago.

About the role

• Lead from the front: take full ownership of the restaurant, drive performance, hit goals, and set the vibe.
• Build a team worth following – train, coach, and motivate people so they raise the standard.
• Smash targets – own KPIs and push the team to deliver every shift, every day.
• Keep it tight – stay on top of the admin: rosters, stock, reporting – so everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.
• Make the guest experience unforgettable – turn first‑timers into regulars by creating moments that hit different.

What we’d love from you

• You lead from the front and have managed teams before, knowing how to bring the best out of people.
• You get people. You build strong teams, handle tough conversations, and create a culture where everyone feels seen.
• You run a tight ship. You know how to keep operations efficient, clean, and compliant – even when it’s chaos.

We don’t hire staff – we hire people. We focus on building real careers and giving you the freedom to be yourself, wherever (and whoever) you happen to be.

Benefits

• Pay rate: £35,000 – £40,000
• Quarterly bonus that rewards the hustle
• Extra holiday – more time to recharge
• Life assurance – we’ve got you covered
• Free chicken & chips every shift
• 25% staff discount
• Gym discounts to keep you moving
• 200+ high street perks & cashback
• Wellbeing support that actually helps

At KFC we promise that every person who applies to a role will have an equal opportunity to work here, regardless of age, background, ethnicity, gender, ability, religion or sexual orientation. We encourage applications from under‑represented groups in all industries. If you need any additional support with your application or have any other requirements – just let us know. We’ll be there to help you be the real you.
