Here at BK, we're always going bigger and better. So it makes sense that we're looking for people who want to do the same. As Assistant Manager you'll be a core part of the leadership team to drive the overall success of the restaurant. Bring that kind of attitude, and you'll boss it. That's because you'll play a part in our big plans for the future as you get stuck in to restaurant management, stand up for what you believe in, and build your own career at the same time. And if you're flexible about where you work, who knows how far you could go. All we ask is that you're the kind of person who has genuine ambition. That you're someone who always wants to be their best. And that you can bring your authentic self to work - every day. It's what we call keeping it real!

What you’ll do

Each restaurant crew at BK is a fast-moving, high-energy, ultra-supportive family. And you'll lead by example so it stays that way. You'll own your P&L, so you'll need to focus hard on driving sales while controlling costs. But your day-to-day is where it will all happen. It's about delivering no-nonsense perfection to every customer. Making sure your crew has everything they need to meet the highest standards. And growing, guiding and developing your team so you can stand up to any challenge that comes your way.

What we’re after

Being an Assistant Manager is a tough gig. We’re looking for people with true business acumen and just the right kind of talent to keep things moving fast. A can-do approach and the ability to put a smile on people's faces are right at the top of our list, too. And if you also get a buzz out of helping people, and you've got what it takes to put the fun into functional, then we think you’ll fit right in.

Join our team now

If you think you’re ready for a real opportunity, then maybe it’s time you dropped your current crew and joined ours instead.
