Benefits include a competitive salary, a £3000 bonus opportunity per year, an average of £140 tips per week, access to Wagestream for up to 30% of earnings before payday, a dedicated 6-week training program, free Wagamama food allowance on shifts, discounts at Wagamama and other brands, internal progression opportunities, wellness programs, family-friendly policies, and financial wellbeing support.
What We Look For:
* Experienced hospitality manager capable of leading a team positively in a fast-paced environment.
* Strong communication skills with a caring approach.
* Understanding of restaurant financial performance and ability to identify opportunities.
* Ability to manage budgets and team performance.
* Leadership skills to inspire and develop teams.
* Problem-solving skills and quick decision-making ability.
The Wagamama Way:
Our philosophy, Kaizen, meaning ‘good change’, drives us to continually improve in all aspects — food, work, and community impact. We celebrate individuality, promote diversity, and foster trust and support within our team. We invite you to bring your authentic self to Wagamama.
Wagamama is proudly part of Disability Confident.
