Now, we proudly serve 1000+ communities across the UK and Ireland, bringing the grit, pride and iconic reputation that started in Kentucky all those years ago. People who are original. Individual. Fresh. We come to work to be ourselves, and to make something of ourselves.

Own the operations, the atmosphere, and the guest experience, helping everything run smoothly and creating a place where both guests and the team feel right at home. What will you spend your time doing? Support like a leader. Assist in taking ownership of the restaurant - help drive performance, hit goals, and keep the vibe alive. Help build a dream team.

You keep things running. You help ensure smooth operations - efficient, clean, compliant - even when things get hectic. Keeping it real We don't hire staff - we hire people.
