Branch Manager - Mashwede Glen, Zimbabwe

You already know what it takes to run a QSR floor - the pace, the pressure, and the satisfaction of a team that works. We're looking for someone ready to own it. Not just manage it. The people, the stock, and the money. This role has three non-negotiables: your cash must balance, your stock must be accounted for, and your team must be scheduled to match the floor. If any one of those slips, the branch slips. We need someone who gets that.

WHAT THE JOB ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE

• Running a full Hungry Lion branch - people, product, and performance.
• Building and managing staff schedules so the right people are on the floor at the right time - no more, no less.
• Ordering stock, checking deliveries, and making sure nothing runs out mid-shift and nothing goes to waste.
• Counting, reconciling, and banking cash every single day.
• Hitting targets on speed, quality, and waste without being told to.
• Handling customer issues directly and setting the standard others follow.

WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU

• O'Levels.
• At least 2 years of managing a team in a QSR or fast food environment.
• Proven experience with cash management, daily banking, and till reconciliation.
• Hands-on experience with stock control.
• Experience managing staff rosters and adjusting schedules when the floor demands it.
• Someone your previous team would describe as firm but fair.
• Comfortable working weekends, evenings, and public holidays.
• Able to get to your store reliably.

WHAT YOU GET

• A real management role - not a title, an actual branch to run.
• A team that will push you to be better at the job.
• Clear progression - Branch Manager is where careers at Hungry Lion get serious.
• Support from a Manager who's done the job themselves.

WHO WE ARE
Hungry Lion started as one store in Stellenbosch in 1997, built on great food and genuine energy. Today that idea runs across 500+ stores in multiple African countries, and we're still growing - backed by smart use of AI and technology and people who think differently. Whether you're on the floor, in the kitchen, or at HQ, you shape what this brand becomes. The best of Hungry Lion is still ahead, and we're looking for people who want to help build it.
