Job Description:
Welcome to KFC. Home of the real ones.
We sell the world’s best chicken. Seriously. And we’ve done it since 1939, when the idea of crispy, original recipe chicken took Kentucky by storm. Now, we’re proud to serve 1000+ communities across the UK and Ireland, bringing the grit, pride and iconic reputation that we started with, all those years ago.
Across the Restaurant Support Centre (RSC), we come to work to be ourselves, and to make something of ourselves. We want to see our potential go that little bit further, as part of one of the world’s most iconic brands.
What’s the gig? Well, you support our restaurants — and we’ll support you every step of the way. Simple. Our doors are open — and they can take you anywhere.
All we ask is that you be you. Because that makes us, us. Sound good?Great. Let’s find out about that job.
The Team
We’re the team that brings KFC to life – literally, t urning big ambition into brilliant bricks and mortar. F rom new builds to bold remodels, we are responsible for shaping the spaces where our people work and our customers experience our brand.
We cover it all: acquiring and building new restaurants, supporting our franchisees on their development journeys, and managing the design, lease, and layout of every equity restaurant - both current and future.
