Area Coach

At KFC, everyone gets a seat at our table. We feed our people’s potential – to be their best selves, make a difference and have fun. Join us, and together, we can be part of something truly extraordinary.

Bringing it to the role:

As an Area Coach, you will provide transformational leadership and high-impact coaching for multiple restaurant teams. Your role will be focused on driving performance across four key metrics – People, Customer, Sales, and Profit. This isn’t your normal 9-5 – you’ll find yourself on our restaurant floor, managing teams, and running audits.

We're looking for a strategic thinker, someone with a high degree of commercial acumen, and the ability to think beyond core operational elements. You should have a proven track record of driving tangible results, a history of career progression, and exposure to wider business functions. We also value your ambition and desire to take on more senior leadership roles in the future, and we are committed to supporting your growth.

As an Area Coach, you will:

• Manage restaurant strategy and projects, creating stretch goals for your team.
• Flex your commercial acumen by identifying and unlocking core growth opportunities in your restaurants.
• Own quarterly business reviews, focusing on profit, people, process, and product.
• Manage the restaurants recruitment process, to bring in the best talent who demonstrate our core values; smart, heart, courage.
• Develop the talent in your area to identify our future leaders and drive retention, showing our potential candidates that KFC is a great place to work.
• Restaurant auditing.

Be Original.

It’s not just what you do at KFC. It’s the way you do it. Unapologetically you, undeniably original. You’ll work with colleagues who all bring their originality to the table, who bring energy, spirit and sizzle to the restaurant floor and make every shift high flyin’ and high fryin’.

We take your ambition seriously; you’ll be treated with respect and supported in everything you do as you roll up your sleeves and bring finger lickin’ good chicken to our customers. And whatever your journey looks like, we’ll help you get there. From flexible schedules to cross-training and the chance to earn qualifications, we got you.

There are all kinds of opportunities at KFC.

Who we are.

Take one man with a big idea, add 11 herbs and spices, grit, ambition, and buckets of heart – you’ve got KFC. Since 1952, we’ve been bringing finger lickin’ good chicken to the world. But without our people, The Originals, none of it would be possible. Everyone at KFC is different. Unique. It’s what makes us special. We’ll always be original. And we welcome you join us; to bring it. Your energy, grit, spirit, and story.

UNITED BY THE BUCKET

At KFC, we’re all about flavour. That perfect blend of herbs and spices that makes everything so finger lickin’ good. But our blend over bland approach doesn’t just apply to our chicken. We value, support, and celebrate all the things that make our KFCers authentic and original. Because whatever your flavour – your ability, age, background, ethnicity, gender, religion, or sexual orientation - we’re all united by the bucket.

If you need reasonable adjustment as part of your application or interview process, don’t hesitate to let us know.
