Hiring for multiple locations in South Yorkshire !!!
Munchies started with one store in Darnall, Sheffield, back in 2017 — big flavour, bigger personality, and a serious smash burger. We’ve since grown to six stores, and we’re nowhere near done. In 2024, we were crowned Best Takeaway in Britain — and Best Takeaway in Yorkshire — at the Just Eat Restaurant Awards, official proof that what we’re building here is something special. Now we’re looking for an Assistant Manager to help lead the next chapter for our multiple locations.
The Role
As Assistant Manager, you’ll support your General Manager in running a tight, high-energy shift — leading the crew, hitting the numbers, and making sure every customer gets that award-winning Munchies experience, every single time.
Day to day, you’ll:
- Lead the shift — running the floor and kitchen, keeping speed, accuracy and energy high.
- Coach and develop the crew — turning new starters into future Assistant Managers.
- Support your General Manager on the numbers that matter: labour, waste, speed of service and sales.
- Keep our award-winning standards on point — stock, deliveries, food hygiene and Health & Safety, every shift.
- Step up and run the store solo when needed — opening, closing, cash handling, full accountability.
- Handle customer feedback calmly, fairly and fast — living the Munchies way, especially under pressure.
Why Munchies
- Real progression: many of our General Managers started exactly where you’re starting now — and the next step from here is General Manager, or beyond.
- Join a multi-award-winning brand — crowned Best Takeaway in Britain and Best Takeaway in Yorkshire at the Just Eat Restaurant Awards.
- We’re growing fast, and that means real opportunity — for you, and for the people you lead.
- Structured leadership training, with a proper handover and ongoing support — not just thrown in.
- Free staff meals on shift, plus a further staff discount on food when you’re off the clock too.
- Company pension: auto-enrolment into our workplace scheme, because we want you set up for the long term, not just the next shift.
- Regular team events — because the best teams celebrate together, not just work together.
- A genuinely supportive team that looks out for each other, especially when it’s busy.
What You’ll Bring
- Experience leading a shift or team — Shift Manager, Supervisor or Assistant Manager level, ideally in fast food, retail or hospitality.
- Confidence with rotas, stock counts and cash handling.
- A calm head under pressure, and the people skills to bring a team together.
- Willingness to roll your sleeves up on every station, not just direct from the side.
- Reliability and flexibility — including evenings and weekends.
Previous experience leading a team in a fast-paced food or retail environment matters for this role — but if you’ve got the attitude and you’re ready to step up, we want to hear from you.
