General Manager

At Wingstop, we’re not just in the chicken business, we’re in the flavour business. Creating memorable experiences for our customers and team is what we do best, and we’ve got the awards to prove it (Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2024 & 2025 and Deliveroo’s Restaurant of the Year). But our mission remains simple: BRING THE FLAVOUR.

Something exciting is coming! We’re opening a brand-new Wingstop restaurant! As a General Manager for a New Store Opening, you’ll have full accountability for launching and leading a brand-new restaurant. From building your team to setting the culture and establishing ways of working, you’ll play a key role in bringing the brand to life in a new location.

You’ll take ownership of all aspects of the business, from driving sales and controlling costs to delivering exceptional customer experiences. Leading from the front, you’ll recruit, train, and develop a high-performing team, ensuring the restaurant is set up for long-term success from day one.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you’ll shape the direction of your restaurant, build a strong team culture, and deliver results in a fast-paced, high-energy environment.

AI can be a useful tool - and we understand many candidates use it for support. That said, we’re really interested in you, not an AI-generated version of you.

We want to hear your voice and understand your real experience. Applications or interview tasks that rely heavily on AI may not give us an accurate picture of who you are. Bring your authentic self to the process - that’s who we’re excited to meet.
