Assistant Manager

Are you a natural leader with a love for delivering outstanding guest experiences?

Do you thrive in busy, high-energy settings where no two days are the same? If so,

we want you in the heart of our action at Crust Bros in Covent Garden.

About Us

Crust Bros started back in 2014 with one guy, a dream, and a serious love for pizza.

Our founder, Joe, swapped the 9-5 office life for the buzz of the restaurant world,

jumped on a plane to Italy armed with nothing but a notepad, an empty stomach and

a mission to find the perfect dough. Six weeks (and a lot of pizza) later, he was back

in London slinging slices on the streets of Shoreditch — and Crust Bros was born.

Fast-forward through pop-ups, street markets we're now proudly serving up

authentic, fast, great-value Neapolitan pizzas in Waterloo, The Prince in West

Brompton and in our new restaurant in Covent Garden — with plenty more to come.

At Crust Bros we're all about seriously good Neapolitan pizza, a buzzing atmosphere

and a team that lives and breathes our values. We're not just service-focused, we're

experience-obsessed — building a place that's fun, memorable and full of soul.

Our Values

CARE – Putting People First. Craftsmanship + sustainability = purpose. Every

pizza, every ingredient, every moment, we aim to do it right — for our guests

and our world.

SOUL-LIFTERS – Motivating & Inspiring Others. Energised, electrified and

unforgettable. We bring the buzz, make people smile and stay part of our

guests' stories.

GUEST LOVE – Creating Amazing Experiences. Obsessive guest-first

experiences. We go beyond the basics to give our guests something

extraordinary.

CHAMPIONS – Striving for Excellence. Creative thinkers and go-getters. We

constantly raise the bar, challenge the norms and strive to lead the way.
