Job description

Team leader

Welcome to KFC. Home of the real ones.

We sell the world’s best chicken. We’ve done it for a long old time — since 1939, when the idea of finger lickin’ good chicken popped into our Colonel’s head. Now, we proudly serve 1000+ communities across the UK and Ireland, bringing the grit, pride and iconic reputation that started in Kentucky all those years ago.

About the role

You’ll be right there on the floor, leading the team, keeping things running smooth, and making sure every guest leaves happy. It’s about setting the pace, lifting the vibe, and getting stuck in to make every shift count.

Responsibilities

• Lead from the front. You’ll get stuck in with the team, setting the pace and driving the restaurant to hit targets and smash expectations.
• Build your crew up. You’ll coach, support, and celebrate your team—making sure everyone grows, learns, and brings their best to every shift.
• Keep it running smooth. From stock checks to shift plans, you’ll help keep things ticking behind the scenes so the front runs like clockwork.

Qualifications

• A natural leader with experience managing teams and the ability to bring out the best in people when it counts.
• A people person who creates a buzz, lifts others up, and knows how to keep the crew happy and focused.
• Cool under pressure—calm, sharp, and able to make smart calls when it matters.

Benefits

• Competitive pay rate.
• Free food and drink on shift.
• 25% staff discount.
