Position Description

Working closely with the Manager to run shifts, you will have a real impact on the business - serving customers on the move, directly affecting profit and loss, and motivating the team to deliver the highest standards of service.

As a Shift Manager for the world famous 'Burger King' brand, you will often work independently in this really hands-on role and can maximise the opportunity to develop your skills from managing and motivating the team, placing stock orders, taking deliveries and having a real impact on every aspect of running the shift.

You will also help with the operational procedures as an integral support to the Unit Manager, playing a key role in the site's success. Because you will be working for SSP the travel sector's world-leading foodservice business, you will have the security that learning and development opportunities are available if you want to take your skills to the next level.


Required Experience

Every day is different here, so there's no time to ever get bored. By the time you have managed the rush hour, restocked the products, carried out some Health and Safety checks, the day will almost be over.

You should ideally have supervisory or management experience in a similar business - a busy, commercial retail catering environment - and be used to working varied hours, with some early starts. Ideally you will have a 'Basic Management Training' certificate or equivalent qualification gained from your current or previous role. Importantly, you should be a good leader, able to delegate tasks and organise the employees on shift to achieve the company objectives.

The huge variation in shift hours means this role would best suit someone who lives locally - so you can improve other people's travels without spending too much time commuting yourself. More than anything, you should want to offer great customer service, appreciating the impact this has on the business.

Salary & Benefits

In return for your dedication and experience, we offer a competitive salary, 28 days holiday, performance related management bonuses, superb learning and development and promotional opportunities, with a tailored development plan to help you achieve your career goals, 20% discount on most of our brands, meals on duty, pension - after qualifying period, life insurance, free parking, with many other incentives and benefits. We also offer straight shifts and in some units you will also be offered uniform.

With so much on offer - a variety of hours, great benefits, a fantastic team culture, excellent training, and all with the thrill of working at the airport - it's not where you start in a retail, bar or catering job with us, its when!
