Job description

Big role. Big impact. We’re looking for a confident Restaurant Manager to flex across our Preston sites, bringing energy, leadership and consistency wherever you go. You’ll team up with the Regional Operations Manager to crank up performance and keep our guests coming back for more.

What’s in it for you?

First, let’s talk careers. When it comes to moving forward, we’ve got your back. We’re growing fast, so we’ll make sure you have everything you need to learn, grow and develop with us. But that’s only just the beginning. We want you to get a taste of the good stuff too, so you’ll also be able to make the most of :

• Up to £15,000 annual bonus for Restaurant Manager level paid twice a year!
• Lots of progression opportunities. Grow your career with us!

This is it. The big one. Your chance to smash it in a business that’s growing faster than you imagine.

Head up one of our restaurant teams and you’ll see exactly what we mean. It’s not just about leading a crew to deliver perfection every day. It’s also about standing up for what you believe in. Making the most of your ambition. Building your career. And… well… just generally bossing it!

If you’re flexible about where you work, there’s no limit to how far you could go. All we ask is 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

The future of your restaurant lies with you, and we’ll expect you to arrive with a genuine vision for making sure it’s a real success. So, you’ll lead from the front. You’ll motivate your crew. Own your P&L. Drive up sales. Hit ambitious targets. Meet the highest standards. Control costs. And anything else it takes to smash it. And all as part of a fast-moving, high-energy, ultra-supportive family.

As Restaurant Manager you’ll also need to keep on top of the day-to-day, too. And you’ll make sure your team has everything it needs to grow, develop, and stand up to any challenge that comes their way.

What we’re after

Restaurant management is a tough gig. But with your experience, you’ll already know that. That’s why you have what it takes to roll up your sleeves when it really matters.

You’ve been there and bought the t-shirt, and your proven business acumen and sheer talent means you can keep things moving fast. And it goes without saying that you have a can-do approach and the ability to put a smile on anyone’s face. 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.

We are a Disability Confident employer. We welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds and experiences.
