Job Title: Assistant Manager

Fish are like us-we all swim together. Strange Fish are bold, curious individuals who fit right in here.

If you're experienced and ready to step into an Assistant Manager role, bring your energy and vision to our restaurant.

Are you

  • Sincere about providing genuine, heartfelt, true hospitality?
  • Interested in learning about Danish and Japanese terminology , culture and heritage?
  • Are you confident and excel in a fast-paced setting?
  • Can you adapt quickly, stay calm under pressure, swim with the flow, maintain standards, and manage costs?
  • Do you build caring relationships based on trust, respect, and generosity?
  • Are you a good listener who supports others with a Big Smile and a small ego?

What you'll be doing at Sticks 'n' Sushi

  • Leading our shifts to ensure our elevated hospitality, motivating, coaching and inspiring your team.
  • Building for the future, growing a strong community of Guests, welcoming everyone equally.
  • Making good decisions, solving challenges and keeping the good energy flowing.

What you'll bring to us

  • A track record of excellence from previous roles
  • Adaptability of water to stay flexible and quickly respond to challenges and changes.
  • A real understanding of 'hands on' togetherness and a natural ability to support your fellow fish.
  • A flair for delivering personal touches and memorable experiences for our Guests that take them away from the real world for a while.

How we will support your journey with us

We don't want people to stand still. We help you grow. We will support you in mastering your craft and new skills. 90% of our General Managers were promoted from within, so promotion is definitely possible. We also have opportunities in our Back Office Teams and for those who can, in places such as Copenhagen, London, Glasgow, Manchester, Oxford, Cambridge, or Berlin (and more to follow).

The benefits that go beyond the day to day

Yes, we work hard. But we also laugh, learn, and enjoy the ride. We want everyone to be part of building something meaningful and to feel involved in making us a little bit better every day. A place where everyone belongs and is represented. You'll enjoy:

  • Staff food (very, very delicious) every shift
  • 50% discount across all our restaurants, everywhere (yes - and drinks)
  • Generous referral bonus schemes
  • Employee assistance and wellbeing support
  • Financial wellbeing support
  • Employee discounts - retail and high street
  • Team events, unforgettable team parties & awards

Ready to jump in?

Then click apply. We can't wait to hear about the Unique (and hopefully a little strange) Fish that you are. We welcome everyone. We believe in true belonging. If your spark matches ours, we'll invite you for a chat so we can meet you properly - and if it feels right, we'll dive in together.

That's Us.
