About Us

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.

About the Role

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.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Leading the restaurant opening
  • Building and developing your team
  • Setting standards and ways of working
  • Driving performance from day one
  • Owning full operational delivery

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong leadership experience
  • Experience in new openings (preferred)
  • High energy and ownership mindset
  • Ability to build teams from scratch

Our Values

Authentic. Entrepreneurial. Fun. Service-Minded.

We are fast-paced, high-energy, and all about delivering great experiences for our customers and our people.

AI Disclaimer

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.
