Assistant Restaurant General Manager

£32k per annum

ABOUT THE ROLE

LOCATION: PRESTON

DEPARTMENT: RESTAURANT LEADERSHIP

SALARY/RATE: £32K - £35K PER ANNUM

HOURS: FULL TIME

CLOSING DATE: 28 JUNE 2026

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.

People who are original. Individual. Fresh. We come to work to be ourselves, and to make something of ourselves. We bring the graft and the laughs every day — building our own community, as we serve our original recipe chicken to the ones we’re in.

In our place, ambition grows. Careers build. Potential goes further. Our doors are open, and they can take you anywhere.

If you join our team, we only ask one thing. That you be you.

Because that makes us, us.

Sounds good? Great. Here’s more about the job.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Support the team, take charge of the day-to-day, and help hit those performance goals while ensuring your team doesn’t just meet expectations, but crushes them. Own the operations, the atmosphere, and the guest experience, helping everything run smoothly and creating a place where both guests and the team feel right at home.

WHAT WILL YOU SPEND YOUR TIME DOING?

Support like a leader. Assist in taking ownership of the restaurant — help drive performance, hit goals, and keep the vibe alive.

Help build a dream team. Train, coach, and motivate your crew to not only meet standards but go beyond them.

Hit those targets. Own your KPIs, support the team, and make sure every shift delivers what’s expected.

Keep everything running smooth. Stay on top of the admin — from rosters to stock, you help ensure the behind-the-scenes work is solid.

Make every guest feel special. Assist in turning first-timers into regulars with moments that keep them coming back.

WHAT WE'D LOVE FROM YOU

You lead by example. You’ve helped manage teams before and know how to bring out the best in others.

You understand people. You support building strong teams, handle tough convos, and make sure everyone feels valued.

You keep things running. You help ensure smooth operations — efficient, clean, compliant — even when things get hectic.

READY?

We hope so. If you’re ready to be part of our community, now’s the time to apply.

Worried you aren’t ticking all the boxes? Don’t - we’d still love to hear from you.
